Seamer Jayden Seales took two wickets late in the day to leave England 38 for three at the close of play in reply to the West Indies' first innings score of 282 on the first day of the third and final test at Edgbaston on Friday.
Australia's Mitchell Starc holds the current record for the fastest recorded delivery in a Test, at 99.6mph against New Zealand in 2015.
The West Indies are one of the economically poorer members of the Test-match elite.
Anderson, 41, finished as the third-highest wicket-taker in the history of Test cricket with 704 scalps in 188 Test matches and is the most successful fast bowler ever to grace red-ball cricket.
James Anderson was thrust straight into the action in his final Test as England captain Ben Stokes won the toss and elected to field against the West Indies at Lord's on Wednesday.
England captain Ben Stokes is adamant his long-term goal of regaining the Ashes in Australia will have no ill-effects as he leads his side into a home Test series against the West Indies starting Wednesday.
"I know you can earn a lot of money from bowling four overs [in T20 cricket], but for me personally, I would never get the same sort of joy or fulfilment from taking wickets that are caught on the boundary compared to really giving a batter a working-over and figure someone out."

James Anderson said Monday he was "most proud" of his endurance as a Test bowler as he prepares for his farewell match with England after a career spanning two decades.
