Did the N. N. Hill Brass Company ever make bells for these bikes (or make them for Bevin perhaps)? They were located in East Hampton Ct. as well.
I got this bell recently and am wondering if it would possible be correct for a G519. It sure looks the same as the Bevin bells I've found pictures of, and it's the exact same size (2-1/4" diameter).
Thoughts?

I think that's about as close as you're ever going to get to a Bevin. I have 4 NOS Bevin bells on my military bicycles and 3 out of the 4 have tight tops. 1 is loose probably from using it more that the others. I think they will loosen with use and time.

Hello stearman 325;
I join Travelfix on his comment!
I have bells 2-1/4 on my G519's but i only MADE IN USA stamped on the levers
You have found a beautiful bell that closely resembles a Bevin bell, it will of course be your G519.
Regards;
Serge
