Product details
Rare heavy brass double sided 'Lincoln' Brass Bell. Slightly creepy and very cool antique.( +-1909 according to the English registry brass mark shown underneath) Solid Brass hand bell, quite heavy with age related scuffs, has not been cleaned or polished. Appears to be a Lincoln imp:
“The Lincoln Imp is the symbol of the City of Lincoln, the county town of Lincolnshire, England. According to a 14th-century legend, two mischievous creatures called imps were sent by Satan to do evil work on Earth. After causing mayhem in Northern England, the two imps headed to Lincoln Cathedral, where they smashed tables and chairs and tripped up the Bishop. When an angel came out of a book of hymns and told them to stop, one of the imps was brave and started throwing rocks at the angel, but the other imp cowered under the broken tables and chairs. The angel turned the first imp to stone, giving the second imp a chance to escape.”
