[A ruled advertisement in a thin single-line frame. A script line and a line of condensed capitals span the top. Below them a halftone photograph shows a hub with a toothed sprocket resting against its open cardboard box; the box lid and sides carry lettering that reads “NEW PERRY”, “TWO STAR”, “PERRY” and “HUB BRAKE (COASTER)”, and a dark wash shadow spreads behind the hub. At the lower left the name “PERRY” stands in large black capitals with two outlined stars and the script words “Deux Étoiles” beneath, followed by three lines of spaced sans-serif capitals. At the right a boxed panel holds a small line drawing of a man in a suit and tie riding a bicycle to the left, with the maker’s line set beside him; a lower boxed band under it gives the sales line. A small drawing of a folded box marked “PERRY” sits at the lower left of the foot, and a rounded double-ruled box across the bottom carries the distributor line, the address in bold capitals and a slanted closing line. No artist’s signature is visible.]
