Bought an older Griswold waffle iron a few weeks back and has been in the lye bath for that period. Got it out yesterday and found that it has a couple ghost images on it. Nothing special but was wondering if some of the more versed seniors can shed a little light on it? Paddles are 976 & 977. Has an acorn type hinge which may tie down the date other than what it has stamped on it. Base is a low base #884.
Also curious as to why the 976 paddle has the script lettering for the No. 8 and also the ghost 976?
Couldn't make out the date on the ghost pat. date either. Maybe once I run it thru the e-tank it will be more clear. Fairly good shape for $38.
