The serial number indicates it was made in 1946, so the 1940 date was close but it is definitely post WWII. This is a "Model 55".

Edit: 1945, misread the number.

The metal ring on the bell is what's known as a band. It was a common repair for cracks back in the day, so it indicates the bell cracked at one point.
