May 28, 201610 yr Hi, I have just purchased this small anvil and am trying to find out the make and approx year of manafacture. One one side it has a eight pointed star cast into with three letters, the first is W and I cannot make out the rest. On the other side is a casting that finished with Birmingham and I cannot make out the rest. I will try to attach some pics. Thank you for any help.
May 29, 201610 yr Author I would like to add that this is a small anvil, approx 30 pounds which fits in with the 0 1 0 marks.
June 4, 20169 yr Give the anvil experts a chance to read and reply, remember your getting expert oppinions (and some not so expert) free. Many of these folks work for a living and save the rest of us from rooting in old dusty libraries or buying old and rare texts as favor. Not all of them are on here every day.

I've never seen people not respond BUT the above comment just could make that happen. Free info takes a while. In my case I don't have the foggiest idea what it is other than an anvil of small proportions. Happy Forging.
June 5, 20169 yr Author Yes, sorry. It is just that I have exhausted all my avenues and my curiosity is getting to me now. Sorry again.
June 5, 20169 yr Don't sweat it, you haven't stepped in it yeat, lol. Pleas tell me you have it clamped to that drill press table just for pictures..
June 5, 20169 yr Author Charles, that isnt a drill press table, it is a grinder stand. The base is bolted down and the main upright is full of sand and 'stuff'. But, yes, it is only there for pics.
