The year is 1926, marking America's 150th anniversary of independence. Towering scaffolding surrounds the magnificent bell as it gradually takes form, revealing its grandeur against a backdrop of industrial machinery. Designed by D. W. Atwater from Westinghouse Lamp Co. , this giant illumination promises to be a spectacle like no other. Its radiant glow will illuminate not just the night sky but also hearts filled with pride and patriotism. The image exudes an air of anticipation and excitement as workers diligently navigate their way through intricate machinery, meticulously piecing together each component that will bring life to this monumental symbol of freedom.
