January 29, 20206 yr I've googled trying to find info about this anvil...I think I got it at a good price but still curious on the origination of this anvil. Thank you Edited January 29, 20206 yr by Mod30 Resize large photos.
January 29, 20206 yr Nice anvil. Can't help ya on the origins but fishers are good anvils. They have a cast iron body which makes them much quieter than wrought or steel bodied anvils. Any other markings on it? Weight?
January 29, 20206 yr Actually the owner and curator of the Fisher Museum participates on this forum; goes by njanvilman if he doesn't pick up this thread you could pm him.
January 29, 20206 yr By the logo, your anvil was made between 1872 and 1880, by Fisher & Norris, in Trenton, NJ. If you post the dimensions, I can tell you the weight. This era F&N anvil did not have the weight on it.
January 29, 20206 yr Welcome aboard... nice Fisher you have there. I hope you have read about not doing any grinding, milling or welding on the hardened steel face. BTW: I always suggest reading this to get the best out of the forum and how to stay off the moderators radar. READ THIS FIRST

January 30, 20206 yr Height, length, width. What'd ya give for it if ya dont mind sayin. And depending on where you're located would determine what's a great buy. Anvil prices can vary widely depending on location.
