"Don't come and tell, ring this like HELL"

I have an Air Ministry “Scramble” bell from 1940 and a vague recolection of a picture with the bell and the above writing on it/near it. I think it would be great fun to display it with a copy of that picture. My question is does anyone know where I can get a copy of that picture – book/poster/web link??

Any suggestions greatly appreciated..

Simon.

I saw an original pic of an original bell somewhere once. I see to recall it was more along the lines of:

“Don’t just yell,
Ring the bloody bell!”

Simon, there’s bound to be a Battle of Britain site with that pic somewhere – I know the very one you mean.

You might want to try one of these:

www.battleofbritain.net
www.battle-of-britain.com
www.raf.mod.uk/bob1940/bobhome.html
www.the-battle-of-britain.co.uk

It’s bound to be in a book somewhere, too. Thing is, I’ve got rather a lot of them….!
