The bell is 9" tall, 15 1/4" wide and thick cast iron. The yoke has PUMP & FIRE ENGINE MF CO SENECA FALLS NY. The bell has a number 1, shown in the picture. This was purchased at an auction last year so we don't have any history. It appears to be original, complete and in good condition. It is currently disassembled prior to a restoration that's on hold until a value is determined.

Re: Antique Bell, PUMP & FIRE ENGINE MF CO SENECA FALLS NY
An antique farm bell attached next to your back door is an accessory that is sure to cause waves of nostalgia in almost everyone who sees it. A century ago, long before cell phones, farmers' wives used these bells to call the family into the house for a meal. The bell's tone would echo throughout the fields and could be heard several acres away.
