Brass Anvil With Isaacson Iron Works Logo
This image is of a brass anvil with the Isaacson Iron Works logo. It is four inches long; one and three-eighths inches tall and one and three-eighths inches wide. A few of these have sold on eBay®. A while back I purchased one and am looking for another.
Isaacson Iron Works had a forging operation during World War II. In 1963, they sold the forge operation to Earle M. Jorgensen. It is very likely Isaacson manufactured these small brass anvils themselves. These brass anvils were a promotional item.
