  1. Thanks everyone for your input, I will keep researching, all information will help as I look for answers about these anvil.
  2. I believe this is a Vulcan anvil made at the Columbus forge in the late 1800s or early 1900s? Because I could not find exact info on the anvil itself I started researching the Ajax name and the picture on it. People told me Trenton Ajax anvils were also made at the Columbus forge. It doesn't have the look of a Trenton. After a lot of research I believe it was made to be some sort of commemorative to a French gunship named the Ajax from the late 1700s which became a trade ship in the 1800s. The embossed logo also depicts a sailor or captain with lightning bolts striking behind him. Many years ago I googled many variations of this picture and came across some history of a captain sailing in the storm that sailed on the Ajax. I believe this is what the anvil depicts although I do not have any guaranteed proof and wish I would have copied some of this info as I found it. This may help with your research on this anvil. Mine is marked with a 6. Hope this will help someone?
