Looking for information on my 200# Trenton anvil.


Recommended Posts

AIA indicates 1911 for the year.

.....some things about your anvil not in AIA.  That was the second style of Trenton logo stamp that CF&I used in production.  Both HB and CF&I had contracts with Sears to brand ACME anvils for sale.  But Trenton had a vastly larger contract, and there are far more Trenton Acme's out there vs. HB Acme's.  Also notice the oddly shaped "9" character in the serial number.  There was a narrow range of Trenton serial numbers that used this character,  roughly 30,000 anvils from what I can document so far.
