Les guidons LAMBERT et CAGNON
pour cycles et cyclomoteurs

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The notice says that the Établissements Lambert et Cagnon, whose articles are sold under the mark Gloria, have always striven to satisfy their clientele by supplying very good quality accessories for cycles. The wide range of their products lets them answer every problem concerning shoe brakes (freins à mâchoires) and handlebars for cycles.]

[Ebykr summary, after the illustration; the article’s text is not reproduced. To follow current developments, new products for the cyclomoteur have just been perfected, in particular handlebars and accessories such as a twist grip with straight cable pull, with or without a built-in decompressor lever or air-shutter lever, clutch levers with a pawl catch, reversed grips for brakes and so on. The new Super-Sport handlebar, on which large brake levers are welded, has been much appreciated by constructors for its shape and its impeccable finish. The many orders already flowing in for this model are said to confirm the renown of the great Lyon mark.]

[An editorial notice in one column of a trade magazine, with a boxed illustration between two blocks of text. The heading stands at the right in bold roman type on two lines, “Les guidons LAMBERT et CAGNON” with the two surnames in capitals and “pour cycles et cyclomoteurs” beneath it. The text is set in italic type, with the firm names in small capitals and the word Gloria and the name Super-Sport in upright roman. The wide, short illustration inside a thin black rule is a line drawing with fine hatching and shading of a single handlebar seen from the front, a bar swept in a shallow double curve with a small clamp bracket at its center, a ribbed rubber grip at each end, a lever bracket with a long curved brake lever on each side and short cable ends pointing up and outward. No caption sits beneath it. No signature, no artist mark and no address block appear.]
