A Really Marked Lodge Skillet
I've come across a few of these skillets marked like this. Is there any significance to all the letters? It looks like a whole crew might have put their marks on the pattern and wondering about the...

Re: Grooved Handle Griswolds
Thanks for your thoughts. I'm thinking this is a question that could be answered by researching Griswold catalogs, to see when the line was first offered and then no longer offered. Not surprising,...

Yes, I think it's a strange one. Wondering if it started out as a Griswold, as to the Tite Top markings, but don't understand the handle and the eagle. The bottom is smooth with no markings. It'll...

Re: Plymouth Foundry Kettle
Sorry, late night posting. The 1866 date is on the bottom (inside) of the lid. The kettle has found a new home, but I recall it reading "Pat'd 1866".

Re: Plymouth Foundry Kettle
Doug, yes. Mid 1870s to 1900s or so anyway, right? I forgot to say that the cover had a patent year (only) on it of 1866.
