rasklking Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 This is a new, old anvil I picked up recently. I've looked all over for markings and none come up. I've even done the flour dusting on it but still nothing. I'm thinking it's an older Mousehole. Anyone else got a guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hot 77 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 By the looks of the thick heel,small horn,and shape of feet,looks like a mousehole to me.Could be wrong though. Not too old though,has pritchel hole.Still old by all means. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmeineke Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Yeah, I agree - looks like a mousehole. I have one that looks just like it marked 1-1-13 (153 lbs). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rasklking Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 Yeah, I agree - looks like a mousehole. I have one that looks just like it marked 1-1-13 (153 lbs). This one tops the scales at just under 153lbs. I paid 200 bucks for it and my wife asked my why I bought another anvil and all I could tell her was, "The price was right." She just shakes her head and walks away. :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Well there were over 200 anvil manufacturers in England and most of them made anvils that look like mouseholes back in the day. Hard to narrow it down without any clues! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmeineke Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Dang... Just when I think I know something, along comes Thomas to remind me that I don't :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
