So when you told me where to look I went back and had another look. I thought I had looked it over pretty well. I have since reworked it but have yet to take a pick of the new block!Īlan I have had this ole gal about six years now and only a little down time has led me to ask more questions about her past!! You know sometimes you have to respect a lady's past as her own! Mine is not pristine and appears to have been used and sometimes abused the edges are not crisp but she is mine and I love her!! Is it considered taboo to re-do the lettering and fill in what is missing? I am thinking of highlighting the logo with a bit of color and can't decide to highlight what is there or fill in the missing letters!!! However it appears to be one of those that has the logo centered and balanced. Everything from printing over top of other parts of the logo, to what appears to be Manufacturing and Manufacturing Co, I have even seen examples that the Hay-Budden is hyphenated.Ĭan anvils be dated as to how the logo appears?Īny info you can share will be appreciated!!Īlso I can only read parts of my logo, the Y on the Hay, BUDD on the Budden,Īnd the N on NY. Take a look at this search, andyou will see examples of what I am speaking of. Mine appears to have just Manufacturing on it, instead of Manufacturing Co. I have a Hay Budden the weighs out on the bath scales at 143 lbs does that sound about right? Why are the logo so hard to see is that just wear and tear, or bad job of placing the logo? They seem to be some with the logo all out of wack! There are some that look as if the middle of the logo was (stamped) over-top of the rest of the logo!!! Or parts are way off center from the rest of the logo! How were the logos put on the Hay Budden anvils, were they cast in or stamped in?
