Les freins et guidons LAMBERT ET CAGNON

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The notice says that this old Lyon firm, long known on French and foreign markets for its brakes and handlebars for cycles, did not wish to stay outside the present evolution and has developed a series of new accessories. Among them the author singles out handlebars for mopeds and scooters and all the twist grips for throttle, gear change, brakes and clutch (poignées de gaz, de changement de vitesse, de freins, débrayage). These nickeled and chromed articles, bright and highly reflective, are sold under the brand name Gloria and are of a presentation and quality much appreciated by constructors and users.]

[A column of editorial text from a magazine page. A bold roman heading, “Les freins et guidons LAMBERT ET CAGNON”, is aligned to the right above the text, which is set mainly in italic with certain phrases in bold roman. A photograph in a ruled frame interrupts the paragraph and shows, in a crisp halftone, a bent moped or scooter handlebar seen from above, with a brake lever and a grip at each end, a twist grip on the right, small cable ends and a central clamp with two screw holes. No signature or agency mark is visible, and no text from the reverse of the leaf shows through.]
