Help Identifying a Fisher anvil

[HudsonHawk]

Hi all,

New to the site, looks awesome, lots of info. I recently bought an anvil and would like to know more about it. I'll attach some pictures, but I can tell you it's plainly marked Fisher, has a eagle on it,

weighs 90 pounds, and also has what looks like it may be a patent # on in 1877. I looks like it has the year 1882 above the other year, and an 01 perhaps next to that.

Any help would be great, and thanks in advance.

Thanks for the tip. I have added my location into my profile, and I did try and limit my picture size today, but don't see the edit button.

Thanks

Mr. H Hawk,

Mr. Blackfrog,  a member on this forum, hopefully, might join in on this thread.  He is very knowledgeable on the subject of anvils.

The edit button for a post is only available for 30 min. To resize a picture, before hitting the submit reply button double click on the uploaded picture and a dialog box pops up so you can resize it. I usually use 500x375 for a size.
