AVERTISSEURS L. TESTE

Maison fondée en 1893

SAIN-BEL (Rhône), France

[A ruled advertisement in black and white inside a thin rectangular frame. Text in several sizes opens the panel, with “60 ans” and “avertisseurs en tous genres” in bold sans-serif. Three line-engraved and halftone drawings fill the middle: at the left a squeeze-bulb horn with a long flared brass bell and a clamp for the handlebar; at the upper right a domed bicycle bell on a curved clamp with a round paper-style label reading “AVERTISSEURS M.D. L. TESTE” around a diamond monogram; and at the lower right a round electric horn with a slotted grille, a lug with a bolt hole and a small knob, with two dimension arrows marked “95%” and “60%”. Captions in bold italic sit beside the drawings. Two model names, “TESVOX 6 v” and “TESVOX V. M.”, are set in heavy sans-serif capitals inside quotation marks with a lighter line under each. A sentence claiming the only French maker with a full range has two phrases underlined. The firm name “AVERTISSEURS L. TESTE” fills the width in heavy condensed capitals, with the foundation year and the town set below between two pairs of short horizontal rules. No artist signature is visible.]
