Les productions ROUSSON-CHAMOUX

[Ebykr summary; the article’s text is not reproduced. The Établissements Rousson-Chamoux are an old house founded in 1880, when cyclists were few on the roads of France. Thanks to extremely careful manufacture and the working qualities of its founders, the Feurs factory developed prodigiously, and its managers do everything to satisfy their numerous and loyal clientele. Their hubs, pedals, sprockets, cranks, headsets, pedal sets, axes and chainrings bearing the marque R.F.G. are described as parts of the highest class, and the notice asks whether seventy-five years of existence is not the best of guarantees. The Rousson-Chamoux products are exhibited at the Salon du Cycle and concern the bicycle, the cyclomoteur and the motorcycle.]

[A text-only editorial notice set in a single column. A bold roman heading, “Les productions ROUSSON-CHAMOUX”, stands at the top right, right-aligned. The body below is set in italic roman type in three paragraphs with indented first lines, the firm name in small capitals and the list of parts (“Leurs moyeux, pédales, pignons, manivelles, jeux de direction, jeux de pédalier, axes et couronnes”) in bold roman. There are no drawings or photographs and no signature or agency mark.]
