From L’Officiel du cycle, du motocycle et du camping, 1 October 1955, N° 20, the paper’s special number before the Salon du Cycle at the Porte de Versailles, page 34: guttacoll handlebar tresses Tressolux and Guideol, Boyeol tape, plugs, children’s bicycle grips, molded rubber goods. The title, headings, captions and lists are transcribed as printed; the text is summarized in Ebykr’s words, and the page images carry it in full.

[Ebykr summary, continued from the foot of the previous column; the article’s text is not reproduced. The Olux rubber chain guard, a novelty, is highly appreciated for its several advantages: it is completely silent and a chain guide is incorporated in the molding.]

[Ebykr summary. These items complete the series of Guttacoll specialties. The notice then points out the Guttacoll dissolution (rubber solution), whose reputation no longer needs making because its quality has led the most varied trades to adopt it, outside the cycle, the motorcycle and the automobile, notably repairers of rubber shoes and boots. It ends that this mark, more than fifty years old, also has its own factory for working rubber manufactured in all its forms and can take on the making of any article in molded rubber (« tous objets en caoutchouc moulé »).]
[The end of a column notice, text only and without a drawing, filling the full width of the crop. The first lines are the tail of a sentence begun in the previous column. The body is italic with small-capital style firm names and the bold roman lead phrases of the dashed item and the last sentence. No signature is visible.]
