HISTORICAL NOTE

Horace Smith and Daniel B. Wesson formed their legendary partnership in 1856, ushering in the era of the modern cartridge-firing firearm. This miniature anvil is a reproduction of a 'salesman sample'—small-scale models used by traveling representatives to demonstrate the quality and durability of their foundry's iron to hardware store owners across the country. These samples eventually became coveted icons of the American desktop.
