  1. Crazy story... I was in the Navy and had to go check out a hoist to load weapons on the aircraft and saw the anvil propping a door open.  I asked the shop supervisor what the deal with the anvil was and he said he'd been trying to get rid of it for a while.  I told him I'd be willing to take it, but since i was on my motorcycle I'd have to go get my car...  I was back in 15 min... 

  2. Overall it looks pretty good.  It looks like there may have been some some welding done on the face and the tip of the horn is flattened due to being used as a doorstop.  At the end of the day they would tip it over and let it drop on the horn.

    I'll pull it out of the garage and see if I can get a full profile of it tomorrow.

  3. Hey there from Florida,

       Been interested in blacksmithing since the turn of the century and I'm now in a position to do something about it.  I acquired a Fisher when I was stationed at Kaneohe MCBH  in 2004.  I got really lucky and got it for the price of hauling it away. 

    Anyway, I was trying to find out some info about my anvil.  I believe it probably was made in 1939, that's as far as I can go.

    Any  info would be appreciated.
