Fire Fox Forge

I cheated n' bought one.

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.
