[A ruled advertisement in black and white, wider than tall, inside a thin rule. “LA PITCHOUNE” in heavy roman capitals between quotation marks spans the head, with a spaced sans-serif line beneath it. Several lines of body text in bold and medium sans-serif sit down the left side, ending with the maker’s name “MARVEL, Fabricant” in larger condensed type and the address and telephone lines under it. A line drawing with fine horizontal shading fills the right half: a small closed child’s trailer with a rounded, egg-shaped body and a domed roof, two side windows showing reflections, a single spoked wheel under a deep mudguard, and a long curved tow bar that sweeps up and forward to a small coupling at the upper left. The words “Modèle déposé” stand at the lower right beside the wheel. No artist’s signature is visible.]

[This advertisement shares page 82 of L’Officiel du cycle with an advertisement for Idéale, held here as its own record, and others for Ledanois et Cie, Cie Soupl, La Nautique Sportive, Pierre Monginet, Gamet and Braun.]
