A new Anvil joins Hammer and Hand !
I found this small anvil at the ‘Brunswick old and gold’ sale … It is an ‘Old English’ pattern, forged in Birmingham around 1830 to 1860 I think .. The markings are indestinct .. The maker might be an N POWELL ? Bit hard to read .. below that I can make out ‘WARRENTED’ and below that , BIRMINGHAM . I canot find a record of an N POWELL making anvils around that time but there ARE still Powells in Birmingham England !?! Also pictured here is the new 4lb ball pein hammer I made from a sledge hammer to replace the one worn out by polishing . (the middle one ,… made lots of ladels !)
