Description
Photograph of a close-up of an "esquita", a church bell balanced to swing easily hanging in a bell tower at Mission Santa Inez, Solvang, California, ca.1904. The wooden yoke with iron[?] strapping is typical of that used by Mission fathers. Legible writing on the bell reads ..."AS.MEFECIT.A"..., ..."de la Nveba California"... (i.e. ..."de la Nueva California"...).
