I have a 1966 Brass Texaco Puerto Rico Bell.
It is very heavy🦾. I just bought a new scale and hope to weight it tomorrow.

I have been trying to gather information about it. I understand Texaco was in Puerto Rico. I also understand Texaco had a Marine Division but I've not been able to locate anything that confirms the bell is a marine bell or that it was there. Not sure if I ever will but I thought I'd ask and see if anyone might have some information, or even ideas where I might find more info?

Also, any ideas on what it might be worth?

Thanks😀

It most likely is the ships bell from the Texaco Puerto Rico launched in 1966.

Good luck with your search for more information!

Thank you SandPCollector

FYI, Malwarebytes, a software program I have, is blocking my access to the website due to a Trojan.

Thank you again SandPCollector. I really appreciate the information as I had nothing until you provided the site👏
I now have where it was built and other historical data including the names.


I was able to view the site after someone checked it out for me. Apparently it's the pop ups that created the problem for Malwarebytes.

Thanks again

I'm happy to be of some assistance!
