While it later gained its name, lore and legend, it was 2,080 pounds of Bell that had been cast at the Whitechapel Bell Foundry in London. We now know it as the Liberty Bell and it is a symbol only, as important as it may be. Humans love symbols and perhaps Americans and Philadelphians more than others.
