Hay Budden (factory cast base) ?

I do not see any signs of stamping. I can only find a handful of photos of HBs on cast stands and two are this same stand. The weight of it is quite heavy even for an anvil stand. -
Just got this 206# HB on a 290# cast base. Found another HB on one at the Fisher museum. Anyone ever see these stands before or know about HB making stands ? Here is the other one at Fisher museum.

No I haven't, from what ive found so far it seems like the numbers by the cutout indicate weight / number made. Found another 1928 like mine and our numbers are close. 469 / 173 488 / 151 From what ive gathered so far taking with Josh at the fisher museum. The earliest know fisher blacker is 1920 & latest 1935. Based off sn# Fisher didn't make many, less than 200 by 1928. So guessing maybe less than 500 total. Still looking for more dates and numbers.

Seperated from the stand for a better cleaning. Pics for now

New photos tomorrow. No I don't have the matching power hammer, they were made in England so they are quite rare here. Especially a functional one, seen a few though.

Hi everyone ! Just wanted to share a really beautiful and tuff anvil I recently picked up here in Pennsylvania. Its a near perfect condition 500# Fisher made for the Blacker power hammer. This one is dated 1928 with SN# 469 173. Its had an easy 90 year life as it looks mint.
