I am hoping hoping someone can help me with my anvil!
The anvil actually came with our house which was built in 1920,
we are trying to clear out some things and are going to sell the
anvil, but I can't figure out what its worth, or the numbering
system on the side of the Anvil, I have spent all day and night
on different websites and still can't figure it out!
The side of the anvil, and its fairly faint, but the anvil
has been outside for years, reads Peter Wright Patent,
a small circle in the middle, also faint, but from what I gather
it says solid wrought, to the left is the number 1, to the right
is a number 8, there appears to be a number right on the wording
"solid wrought" and I think that it is either a number 1 or 4.
My concern is that the middle number is right on top of the
"solid wrought" wording, and secondly I can't figure out if the
number is a 4 or 1. I will attach a few pictures, can anyone
help? (also that is an outhouse behind the anvil in one of the
pictures! I think it may actually collapse before my husband
gets a chance to take it down!) Thanks, kjohn
