IF you can't position the anvil or lights to get oblique lighting try putting a single ply of tissue paper over the flash to diffuse it. rubbing it with chalk or charcoal and wiping the surface off will help define the marks.

I am also looking for a date on my Trenton anvil. 100# serial# 228809. I inherited from my dad and have worked with it for years but I just recently started looking into the brands and quality of an anvil. I guess I just never thought about it before

thanks

Hello, I just purchased a 200# Trenton from a retired welder who was tired of tripping over it in his garage.  Very nice!  The serial # in the picture seems to be 221729, and the logo is in the second picture.  From previous posts, I'm guessing this dates it back to around 1930?  Does the serial # suggest a specific year?

Thanks for all the info in these pages,

Tim
