What is a very large heirloom bell pepper?

What is the largest or one of the largest heirloom bell peppers? Something similar to a Big Birtha but not a hybrid. One that has the blocky bell shape and isn't pointy at the end.
 
Not sure if its the biggest, but I have had good luck with chinese giant bells in the past, and as far as I know they are not a hybrid.
 
Are you looking for true heirlooms, or just non-hybrids? Not all non-hybrids are heirlooms. If you're looking for a large bell pepper that's not a hybrid, you might look at King of the North, Napolean, Big Red, California Wonder, or Quatrato d' Asti Rosso or Giallo. There are lots of varieties out there.
 
Thanks for the names. I am looking for one that is not a hybrid and will have seed that is true to type. The Quadrato D'Asti Rosso one looks nice. I think I might get that one. Do you have any favorite seeds stores? It doesn't really matter to me where it comes from as long as the place is trustworthy enough to not allow cross pollination.
