Hey Dave how about this one?

I found this variety very similar to yours. Pretty sure it's a manual door bell with the same patriotic theme. Mine appears to have been in a fire at one time. 1800's house site was its origin.

I might be wrong, but they are cool nevertheless.
I believe you are correct on the ID.
I looked them up and they are quite ornate.
I remember going to a coworker’s house and he had one.
On the outside was a twist assembly that made the bell ring.
One thing I feel certain of…whatever these are, they are the same thing…

We had one as well the house was built in the 1905 era. I found one several years ago that was quite a bit larger and it has a 1860's patent date I was able to research and find the complete door bell picture.
