[Bell Historians] English Decorated Bronze Mortars and their makers

[Alan Buswell]

Is this anything to do with the War Effort? G&J were making ammunition boxes and in July 1915 began making fuses.

  If you thought bellfounders only cast bells, think again!


  Michael Finlay of Thursby, Cumbria  has just published the above book (ISBN 9781872477015). It is fabulously illustrated with well over 300 photographs of mortars, together with drawings of the marks to be found on them. Many bellfoundries are represented in this book which clearly will be the reference book on the subject for a very long time.

  As yet I do not have a copy of the 'flyer', but will upload when I know more.
