[Front cover, chromolithographed on cream paper. At upper left stands the Terrot shield: the crowned arms of Dijon above a shield crossed by a red diagonal band lettered TERROT, with MANUFACTURE FRANÇAISE on a white ribbon curving up the left flank, DIJON and (CÔTE D’OR) below it and a spoked wheel device at the right. Across the center BICYCLETTES runs in red ornamental script over TERROT in heavy shaded black capitals, with the year 1893 set in a torn black cartouche beneath. Behind the lettering a line engraving shows an orchard lane in blossom with two cyclists riding toward the viewer, one close and one distant, framed by an arc of fine rules and sprays of apple flower. The imprint C. TERROT / Constructeur Mécanicien / DIJON sits in a white panel at lower right, and the printer’s line runs along the bottom margin.]
