Help with anvil history

[Bear_Blade]

I hope this is the right forum...

I reciently picked up an anvil, and after removing many layers of paint, found "TRENTON" and "ACME" fon the front. There is also a "H" on the side of the horn. I was wondering if anyone could give me a history lesson on this old timer. It appears to have a steel face and a cast iron body. !'m guessing the weight at about 125lbs. Any insight would be awsome.

Sorry! I couldn't resist.

Here's a site that might help. I'm looking to buy a small anvil eventually, but it's on hold for now. This is from the research I did a while back:
