A black and white photograph of the bell was at Mission San Gabriel, ca. 1920s. The wall is across the center with four arches, one at the top and three at the bottom. The arch at the top has a decorative iron rod at the center of the top. Bells hang from the two arches at the left of the bottom with the bell at the far left being the largest. The opening at the far right is empty. Beams of sunlight penetrate through the arches from the back. At the back of the wall are tree tops. Stamped on the bottom of the back is the word, "VELOX." The photograph was housed in Agnes Temple's album which is item 96.7.94.1 along with many other photographs which span 96.7.1.1-.93.1. Contact sheets 2000.159.1.1-.8 show the original positioning of the images within the album. With a small stain at the top and creased corners, the artifact is in fair condition.
