    Don't know what the anchor stands for, but just in case you don't know what this "tool" is - it's for stamping seal impressions onto paper documents - as in corporate seals. Yours is missing the seal die. I have the one used by my grandparents and great-grandparents for the family business.

    The corporate seal embosser at my last employer was still in this style (about 10 years ago.)

    Possibly Yerkes & Plumb, mid to late 19th century toolmakers.

    That song was actually the B side of the record as the A side, 'Trot like you've got diarrhea' stunk so it dropped out of the charts... ;)
