Howdy all,

I need some help with this anvil. I bought it today and did EXTENSIVE online research, and the only references I could find to it were on this forum (which were vague). I'm looking for any history/insight that any of you might have into the how old this anvil is, who made it, and any other bits of knowledge you might have. On the anvil itself, the words (barely readable) are as follows

Lewis

Warranted

Best

Tiedin (Is this a last name? Am I misreading this? NO results on google for tiedin. Doesn't even sound like a legit word to me)

Thanks

Im not sure about the anvil bit here is another thread with an anvil like yours.

 

I also have an anvil by Lewis best  looking for more info
