[An all-type notice with no illustration, framed by heavy black bars at the top and foot and thin side rules, announcing Louison Bobet first in the Tour de France on a L. Bobet cycle fitted with the Pryma saddle. The Pryma name is set twice, once in very large geometric display capitals across the center above the saddle model numbers 515 and 517, and once in spaced serif capitals at the foot after a line crediting the Mercier works with the Louison Bobet cycles.]
[This advertisement shares page 14 of Le Cycle with an advertisement for Sova, held here as its own record, and one for Nyl-nett scooter gloves.]
