This is a Gazelle comic apparently from the 1930s Dutch Indies.
'In many cities and villages
There are many kinds of bicycle sold
Uncountable brands
The price is extraordinary'
'There are also cheap ones
The price of a single goat
But if you ride them for two or three days
Everything broken and not resellable'
'From that the clever man
Like Maas the wise man
Buys the Gazelle brand pneumatic bicycle
The famous brand'
'Gazelle brand select pneumatic bicycle
Light and pretty without competitor
Models pretty like a maiden
When astride you'll feel like in heaven'
'Fast like the wind
Carts, cars you'll leave behind
Down, up, you'll fight the wind
Always Gazelle in front
'Made from strong iron
Wheels and chain just the same
Can withstand being slammed down, do what you will
It's fine for tens of people to sit on it'
'Cheap, light, strong'
'Gazelle bikes are already famed
Light, fast, strong and cheap
Also available with light
Find profit extra income'
'The story of the brave Maas
Owner of a Gazelle, choice bicycle
To the upper golden islands
Gazelle bike is not left behind'
'Everyone who saw it
Is surprised to see such a beautiful bike
And asked 'Where did you order'
The answer 'Go to your Gazelle Agent'
'Not only many people
Who asked as such
But also Sultan Pakantan
Great glorious king'
'After listening to Maas' answer
They each opened their coin purse
And went directly to the Gazelle Agent
Flocking like to a rice store'
'All asked about Gazelle bikes
Pneumatic bicycle the #1 strongest
The agent replied calmly
"Gazelle brand is #1 in every respect"
'Look at this Gazelle model 7
In the world it has no comparator
To the seventh heaven
Gazelle always at the front'
'They each mounted their bikes
Flew like a Garuda bird
Their smiling face a sign of their happiness
They reached home without feeling a thing
The Sultan also excited
To own a Gazelle, select bicycle
Morning & afternoon no question
Ride the Gazelle to the gardens
Upon his return from the gardens
His face beaming like the moon
Because of his happiness with Gazelle select bicycle
Like winning a battle
The Sultan
Who has a daughter
Many sons of kings proposed to her
But none were successful
But now what has happened
But His Highness with good heart
After owning a Gazelle that's certain
Summoned young Maas
The princess was also summoned to the royal audience hall
To face the powerful king
Then asked the princess
What do you think of young Maas
The princess replied respectfully
Held out her two hands
All my father's wishes will follow
As long as you follow the Gazelle pneumatic bicycle
It was crowded with the people of the nation
For the wedding of the two youngsters
Revelling for days
Endless eating and drinking
The two of them lived perfectly
Without ever moping
Owning diamonds & gold
Grandchildren and children surviving
Despite wealth immeasurable
That belonged to his wife the crown princess
Gazelle bicycle always remembered
Just like he loved his wife
Gazelle bicycle always remembered
Just like he loved his wife
Because of its strength, lightness, and quality
Can last until his great-grandchildren
How Maas got a princess as his wife
