U.S. Navy Ridged Foredeck/Anchor Bell
WW I & II Period

U.S. Navy  Bell 

with Upper & Lower Bands

WW I & II Era

 

Presented is a beautiful U.S. Navy Foredeck or Anchor bell.  Based on its design with the ridges, we date the bell to  the World War One (WW I) period. However, because it has the U.S N. engraved, we think it was probably closer to the WW II period.  The original inverted vertical “J” bracket is missing.  We’ve replaced the bracket with our proprietary brushed aluminum bracket. This allows the bell to be mounted as it was on a pedestal or deck, hence they are known as an anchor or foredeck bells.  This fine bell also comes with a wall bracket allowing for a different mount if the buyer perfers.

DIMENSIONS: BELL: Diameter at crown 5
Diameter at mouth 9 1/2″
Height to crown 6 3/4

Height overall 12″ – With Stand 19″
WOOD STAND: 14″ L x 11” x 1/2″
Weight: 25 1/2

These fine Navy bells with their wonderful resonance are becoming very difficult to find in good condition.  It appears to have the original clapper with the bottom hook, allowing for the attachment of a bell rope.
