Les fabrications GUTTACOLL
[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The Établissements Guttacoll exhibit at the Salon du Cycle at the Porte de Versailles the specialties that, for more than half a century, have made the reputation of the firm’s maker at Asnières. The notice then lists the firm’s products in dashed items.]
— Les gaines Olux
[Ebykr summary. The Olux handlebar sleeves are very practical and give a luxurious look to the bicycles fitted with them.]
— Le patin de frein Zébre
[Ebykr summary. The Zébre brake block brakes in all weather (« par tous les temps »). It is adopted by racing cyclists, by cyclotourism specialists and by users all over the world. A special model exists for cyclomoteurs, and its braking power is said to be unequaled.]
— Les bavettes Guttacoll
[Ebykr summary. The Guttacoll mudguard flaps have an instant mounting system that removes metal parts and therefore rust. They are made in several models for cycles and one high-protection model for cyclomoteurs.]
— Le carter guide-chaîne caoutchouc Olux
[Ebykr summary. The Olux rubber chain guard is described as a novelty; the sentence breaks off at the foot of this column and the notice continues in the next column, filed separately.]
[A column notice set in text only, with no drawing. The heading is in bold roman capitals and lowercase with the firm’s name in capitals. The running text is italic with small-capital firm names; each dashed item opens with a bold roman phrase. The text runs the full width of the column and is cut at the foot in the middle of the last sentence, which continues in the next column. No signature is visible.]
