Thomas, Now where does the smith you just talked about work out of? Its proven to be difficult to find someone up here in the pacific northwest to do work like this.

Fatfudd, That'd be awesome if someone could point me in that guy's general direction? It's a family anvil and I'd actually like to use it, take care of it, and pass it along. Along with the anvil was a ton of great blacksmith and farrier tool (that I can fix up myself) but I cant do the anvil.

Thomas, My grandfather is from the northern California area (Greenville, Redbluff, and now Yreka). As for the underside, there are no markings, just some pitting. Sorry, I am not super knowledgeable about anvils. I've only been a farriers apprentice for about seven months.

Can anyone help me identify this and maybe explain how it looks so terrible? It has no marking on it what so ever. My Grandfather just gave it to me and he said: "It's so old even I don't know where it came from!" Also is there any way to restore it? Thank you. The 0-F Wrangler horseshoe is for scale.
