Made by the Chicago Cycle Supply in or around 1935. This symbol dates to ancient time
& was used as a “Good Luck” omen. With WW2, it took a negative aspect.

When we toured China, this symbol was on ancient objects but backwards to the Nazi wartime symbol.

I looked at the bottom of this bell today and with some cleaning it said; The Liberty Bell, Adjustable, Bristol, CT.

I found this at an antique store in Blaine WA for $10. I've seen it in couple of displays in this forum. Is it a

new departure bell and about how old do you all think it is? Works great and has a great sound. Thanks.

Nice bell!
$10 bucks!
Wow!
Fabulous score!
I think that one is a Bevin Bell.
They had a long production run, so anywhere from the 1920’s/30’s
I like them in that size.
Not too overwhelming on the handlebar, and a very nice tone.
Congrats!
