Matchlessantiques offers collectors and smiths this Beautiful 300 lb. Hay Budden Blacksmith Anvil. Made in Brooklyn, New York, this Hay Budden would make any blacksmith's day. The anvils face has some light use marks and the edges are rounded over from use. T are no major chips or nicks. T are no repairs on this anvil. The trademark is just about gone but should read, "HAY BUDDEN, MANUFACTURING CO., BROOKLYN, N.Y." and below the trademark is a faint weight stamp that reads, "300". The serial number reads "A1815" which means this anvil would have been made in 1918. Please take a real close look at the pictures. According to Richard Postman's book "Anvils in America" this Solid Wrought Iron anvil was the third style anvil Hay Budden produced. This style included a major change with the method of making the top half of the anvil. Instead of welding a tool-steel face plate on to the wrought iron body, the entire anvil from the waist up was forged from one piece of open hearth tool steel. The base was forged from one piece of the best American Wrought Iron available. Postman's book goes on to say that Hay Buddens were considered the best American made anvil. Hay Budden claims they used the best material available and were produced by the finest American craftsmen. It is still considered the Rolls Royce of blacksmith anvils and is one of the most popular anvils today. Personally signed copies of the book Anvils In America are available upon request. Please write if you are interested.This anvil is a fantastic looking anvil and will be an excellent addition to any collection or a great size to use in the shop.
