Bell Tower Flash Drive

Available to ABA members

is a flash drive that has all Bell Towers and Supplements from  the beginning of ABA (1940) to May/June 2026.

Just updated!

It is indexed and is searchable.

Notes about the 2026 Bell Tower Magazine Flash Drive

This drive contains newly scanned issues of the Bell Tower. Unlike the original drive, there should be few page cut offs or page wrapping from before or after pages. There are some issues (1940s and 1950s) that have used the original issues but the have been scanned and cropped to eliminate all but the page.

 The Supplements file has articles that people wrote that were not included with the magazine (they are among the searchable). Some articles are attached to an issue if known when published, others had no issue. The ‘Supplements List Alphabetized’ file lists them, what issue they are attached to or if they are in the Supplements File.

 Included (but not searchable) are old BT Indexes done in previous years and current indexes.

What Lucille said about the flash drive:

I had several bells in my catalog that I could not identify but have been going thru the BTs, with help of the flash drive, and finding not only pictures to identify them but stories about them.    

There are pictures and stories about bells I could never have even imagined, let alone know to ask for on Google!   Learning about bells has certainly made me a more knowledgeable person about many persons, places and things.  Articles by the many people I have read about in the BT have definitely made my life more interesting. 

There are so many intelligent, interesting people in the American Bell Association.  I am truly grateful to have joined.
