Description

The bronze bell sits on a wooden palette, awaiting installation in the bell tower of the new brick church, 1938-39. The bell is engraved (Slovak language) on both sides. It was manually operated with a bell rope for the next 40 years and was moved to a new bell tower in the early 90's (at which time it became possible to "toll the bell" electronically). 8x10 black & white print. Scanned on Epson 10000XL at SLLC, 2011.
