As well as the publisher of the magazine "Cyklista", advertising for "Avonky" could not be missing on the pages.
At the time, many sellers such as Augustin Vondrich offered their customers, who did not have all the cash to buy a bike, a favorable loan to those who had demonstrated the ability to meet regular weekly or monthly installments, where the installment was adjusted by agreement. There was also bicycle insurance against theft or insurance against accidents for a total amount of CZK 25,000.
This exhibit has been preserved in its original condition and comes from a small mountain village from Zdarske Vrchy where she spent part of her journey.
