This little fella followed me home today for $125.00. 86 pound Lakeside anvil. IIRC they were produced by Trenton. 86 pound Lakeside Anvil - Blacksmith Photo Gallery

Back from Quad-State with: an early medieval stump anvil (modern repro, hardened and tempered!), a nose cone cone mandrel, a 5" post vise, die springs, zero carbon sheet steel, some thin SS strip, a twisting wrench, couple of socket chisels, high tech punch lube, memories and probably an extra couple of pounds.

Thomas of course you got a couple of extra pounds, all that steel adds up.

Finnr,

Nice little anvil. Lakesides were also made by Hay Budden (that's what yours looks like to me judging from the horn shape). I have a 100 pound Lakeside by Hay Budden.
