[Bell Historians] Re: Olympic bell

[George Dawson]

What saddens me is the lack of potential collaboration between the two English foundries to produce an English cast bell.

As I have asked before, I wonder if the steel for the stadium was made in the UK, or all the electronic gadgetry that will make the place run?   I have my doubts!

 

I also find it rather interesting that a member of Taylor's staff has gone to the trouble of acquiring a photograph of the bell, clearly taken at the Dutch foundry where it was cast, and seen fit to publish it to this group.  Not a very professional thing to do in my opinion.
