Little Bell mounted on firewall of 1932 Ford
Can anyone tell me about this. The guy who sold said it was a parade bell. I’m just curious if this was common?

Not OEM Ford nor common on an automobile.

Looks like an extra phone bell you might have on the porch or in a garage. I had one in my room when I was a kid playing with that sort of stuff

Loud whistles, a backfire coil for the exhaust, and smoke generators were common on the old wheelie popping model T clown cars. Add a bell along with a whistle and it truly has all the bells and whistles.

An early style Bermuda Bell?
