There's a book called Mr. Bell Remembered by Carole Nowicke that was printed privately for the author by Clinch River Brasswinds at C&D Printing, Clinton Tennessee. Great biography and lots of cool pictures. He was quite the character all thruoghout his life and there are Many stories about his exploits but, I'd rather leave that to people who were actually there. Best, Ed

Funny thing, I came across this article about Mr Bell in an old itea journal last night. Also in this photo is Mr Gnagey whom I was asking about the other day. And Mr Harry.

Must have been one hell of a studio!
