How do you replace the missing face? I don't see the older posts. Also, I think I can make out the word Brooklyn on one side. How's the best way to clean it up -steel brush?

Newbie wondering if anyone can tell about this anvil? Thanks

Hello all, Another noob for your ranks, my teenage son is interested in making knives and we got this forge and anvil from a farmer. It has been a toolshed with a bad roof but seems restorable. He thinks they are from before 1902. The blower is siezed but we have not tried flushing it out with diesel fuel yet. There are no markings on the forge except the blower has 547 and 546 on each side of the housing and the tube has a 19. Could any of you identify what we have here? Thanks
