Liberty Bell

During the trip to Pennsylvania in 1982, we stopped in Philadelphia to see the Liberty Bell.

From Wikipedia:
"The Liberty Bell is one of the most prominent symbols associated with the American Revolutionary War. It is one of the most familiar symbols of independence within the United States, and has been described as an international icon of liberty and justice for all. According to tradition, its most famous ringing occurred on July 8, 1776, to summon citizens of Philadelphia for the reading of the Declaration of Independence."
