June 10, 200916 yr Does anyone recognize a hammer name that ends in HAN? It appears to have a VA or /A at the front and possibly a high C like in a Scottish name or that could be an S.
June 10, 200916 yr Could it be VAUGHN? I have several of that brand. Or it could be Vaughan? Edited June 10, 200916 yr by keykeeper
June 10, 200916 yr Author You would have better luck getting a meaningful answer if you posted a picture. Normally, I'd agree with you but the lettering is so faint I can't even bring it out with Photoshop, flour, or oblique lighting. I probably should have mentioned all of the tricks I tried before writing. I think the fellows who guessed Vaughan are correct. My so-called C could easily be a G and that would leave only the U as completely scrubbed out. And with the name I remember having recognized the typeface and it's Vaughan's. It's about a 2.5 # crosspein for a dollar at a Trade's days. Thanks to all.
June 10, 200916 yr Author Not to be obtuse, but have you tried paper and pencil rubbing? Good Luck Cliff Yes, thanks. The lines are so fine my skill level and tracing paper wouldn't bring them out.
