Hollywoodedge, School Bell Long Ring PE193201

This sound effect can be found on The Premiere Edition Volume 1, which was made by The Hollywood Edge. It is a recording of a Simplex Time Recorder 4090-2 6" 120 VAC bell ringing continuously and loudly. It's similar to, but should not be confused with BELL, SCHOOL - SCHOOL BELL: INT: LONG RING, nor should a low pitched version be confused with Hollywoodedge, Alarms High PitchedS TE012603. It was originally an Animation City Editorial Services, Inc. sound effect.

Trivia

This happens the be the most common and overused school bell sound effect that many sound companies are fond of using. There are even some schools in real life that use this actual bell, mostly in school buildings built between the early 1970s and the mid-1980s, typically those built with Simplex master clock and bell systems that are still in use (although the bell has also been branded and used by Faraday and Standard Electric Time Corp.)
