[A ruled advertisement in black and white. At the upper left a monogram logo shows large outlined letters V and W joined by an ampersand, crossed by a horizontal bar that carries the words “SPECIALITES pour MOTOCYCLETTES” in thin capitals. At the upper right “ACCESSOIRES” stands in heavy roman capitals above “pour Cycles et Motos” in bold type. A large line engraving at the right shows a rear seat with a patterned rubber top, a curved padded grab handle and support rods. A second engraving below it shows the rear of a motorcycle with a pillion seat, a luggage rack and the rear wheel. At the lower left a drawing of a rectangular bidon with a clamp and a funnel-like neck sits beside a drawing of a footrest assembly with ribbed rubber grips on adjustable arms. The product list at the left is set in centered light sans-serif type above a short rule. The catalog note, the firm name in bold and the address close the panel at the lower right. No artist signature is visible.]
[This advertisement shares page 126 of L’Officiel du cycle with advertisements for Fougerat and Packson, each held here as its own record, and one for Ferrand gloves and clothing.]
