Brad, as I wrote you earlier I believed this anvil to be a Hay-Budden.
Last night I reread the Hay-Budden section in Richard Postman's
'Anvils in America', (just published and by far the best work on the
subject available!), and I think I found the clincher!

'There is one other diference in those anvils with the 'A' prefix.
The number on the front of the waist under the horn is always a '4'.
Somtimes the '4' is upside down.'

This 'upside down `4' sure sounds like your 'T-Z' mark.

Please double check the serial though the 'A' series are not listed
as having gone as far as the 80K's, (if it is a 30K number it was made
in the early 1920's)

BTW although two british firms Mousehole and Peter Wright used the
old hundredweight system of marking, most of the american firms did
not. They used a simple weight stamp. (n.b. Hay-Budden also used
a 1-3 digit stamp that is believed to refer to the lot of steel
used in its construction so if the 157 is not indicative of the
weight it is probably this lot number)

Another sign of the Hay-Budden is the 'hourglass shape' of the
indentation on the bottom of the anvil, (actually a fairly thin rim
that projects down from the edge of the base and so follows the
base's contours.) [I told you it was a *good* book...)
