mikey445 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Brand new to the forum and just picked this Fisher up today. Can someone help ID the possible date? It has a good logo but no other markings I can find. Thanks in advance! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njanvilman Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Straight horn FISHER anvil, proud Eagle with the Naval Anchor. Your anvil was made between 1871 and 1879. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikey445 Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Thanks so much for the quick replies! Was it common Fishers of this era to have no markings other than the logo? Thanks again! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few had FN under the horn, standing for Fisher & Norris, the original owners of the company. They did the FN on some anvils from the late 1860's to 1879.
