[A ruled advertisement in black and white, framed by a single heavy rule. The title stands across the head in large bold shaded roman capitals between quotation marks, with a line of widely spaced lowercase roman type beneath it. Text lines in a lighter sans-serif run down the left side, with small round bullets between the groups. At the right a line drawing with fine horizontal shading shows a small teardrop-shaped covered trailer on a single spoked wheel under a mudguard, with a long curved tow bar rising to the left and ending in a small loop. The upper body has a window at the front and a round porthole in the side through which a small figure is faintly drawn. The maker’s name, address and telephone numbers sit at the lower left in bold sans-serif type, and the words “Modèle déposé” appear in small type at the lower right beside the wheel. No signature or artist’s mark appears, and no text from the reverse of the leaf shows through.]

[This advertisement shares page 56 of L’Officiel du cycle with advertisements for Gourgaud, Prym, Mistral and Guttacoll, each held here as its own record, and others for Driot, Selles Reydel and Gallet.]
