Randy478 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Finally found an anvil. Anybody heard of G E M brand? haven't found any other markings.It's probably about 80# or so. It should do me fine for starting out making hooks and twists in square and round stock 1/2" and below. Thanks Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad J Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Hey Randy As per Anvils in America he states that, "At this time i don't know who manufactures them. the anvil was advertised in the 1903-04 Clung & Company catalog of Knoxville, Tennessee, and in the 1934 and 1940 belknap catalogs. This would seem to indicate that the GEM anvil was made over a long period of time. the 1903 ad has the anvil listed in 75 and 100 pound increments and in the 1934 and 1940 catalogs at 100 pounds only." Not a lot of info, but maybe somebody else here has more to add. Chad J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy478 Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 thanks for the reply Chad. I think someone has done repair on the top plate. It has a pritchel hole and 1" hardy hole. I'll try and get some pics up. Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
