[A ruled, text-only advertisement in black on a full page. “Deux grands noms, deux grandes marques” opens in light italic sans-serif capitals, stepped across two lines. “Raphaël Géminiani” and “Carrara” follow in tall heavy condensed sans-serif capitals, “Carrara” set between triple rules. Short centered rules frame the product lines in a light sans-serif. Below “Constructeurs :” in small bold italic, the two makers, Randoin of Montluçon and Carrara of Créteil, stand at the left in large spaced light capitals with their towns and telephone numbers beside them. There are no drawings.]
[This advertisement shares page 42 of L’Officiel du cycle with an advertisement for Dilecta, held here as its own record, and one for the Mosquito auxiliary engine.]
