Nate is the expert but he's too busy talking about car lifts on a different thread.
-
Yea,
Where's the Sergeant on this anyway?
NCO's...

I find pushups to be an effective behavior modification technique. My daughters have to do pushups for many infractions. 20 pushups per lightswitch I have to switch off behind them....

Do you think this method could effectively be used on wives also?

NOPE! you might get laughed at and then be either in the hospital or out on your butt....lol

I WILL POST SOME PICS VERY SOON,
NATE, I HAVE NEVER SEEN BOTH NAMES ON ONE PAN BEFORE, I KNOW THEY WERE BOTH BOUGHT OUT BY THE SAME COMPANY BACK IN THE SIXTYS BUT NEVER NEW THEY PUT OUT SUCK A PAN, AND AM WONDERING THE VALUE OF THE PAN
-
HERE IT IS
-
With a quick search on wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Griswold_Manufacturing
That pan was made between 1960 and 1969.
As far as being a valuable piece, probably not.....(just because of the date of manufacturing and the sheer number of them still being available.)
I can probably find you a more exact price if you want, but it may take me a day or 3?
Can you post a pic of the cooking surface please?
-
I HAVE PURCHASED 6 PANS IN THE LAST WEEK, 1 WAGER 8, 2 GRISWALD 8S A WAGNER 5, AN UNKNOWN AND A BSR CORNBREAD PAN AND THIS ONE. I WILL BE DOING SOME RRESEASONING WHILE IM ON MY VACATION IN 2 WEEKS
-
dang, that's a lot of pans.
how much did all of those dent your wallet for?

let me clearify the highlighted sentence please.
in 1960, so international trade regulations changed requireing that all cast iron manufactures in america put "made in usa" on their products. during that time, it seems that the foundries changed their processes and added more metal, which in turn added more weight to their products. as well as changing the smoothness of the actual cooking surface.
so from a collectors stand point, everything made before 1960 is considered a collectable and worth some sort of money depending on how rare the piece is, and anything made after 1960 is considered "not an antique"

THANKS NATE. I HAVE A FEW UNKNOWNS, A FEW WAGNERS, A FEW GRISWALDS AND A PAULA DEAN CASSEROLE DISH, AND A HARBOR FRIEGHT DUTCH OVEN, PLUS A NO NAME DUTCH OVEN WITH A ROUND TOP LID.
-
OH AS FAR AS CASH- I'M OUT 150.00 BUT STILL LOOKING FOR A LARGE LOGO GRISWALD GRIDDLE.
-
the rounded lid sounds like a wagner, but I could be wrong.
here are a few sites that I have used in the past along with what cast iron collectors call the cast iron blue book.

that's cheap for 6 pans!
-
I GOT A PRE 1960 WAGNER WARE CHICKEN FRYER IN THE LOT THIS WEEK, ONLY COST ME 35. MOST OF THE STUFF I HAVE IS PRE 1960, I LOVE THE FACT THAT IT LAST FOREVER, AND YOU CAN PASS IT DOWN TO YOUR YOUNGINS.
-
THESE ARE THE ONLY MARKINGS ON WHAT SOME CALL A DUTCH OVEN, I CALL IT A BEAN POT BECAUSE OF THE ROUNDED LID
-
Thats a cool pot, any possible interest in working a deal for it?
-
Now you guys have me curious. I have a skillet my wife inherited from her grandmother. It has a big ridge on the bottom side which is supposedly for mating with the slot in a wood burning stove. How old do you think it may be?

Pictures please

The ridge was a lot bigger. 20 years ago I ground it down

And this is the pan I learned to cook on at 5 years old. And I think it was old then

So if you were a kid when you cooked on that bottom pan then it’s well over a hundred right? Just trying to help Nate decipher relevant time frame here..... :tongue:
-
What Shawn said but maybe older.. blue one looks like Ming dynasty.

yeah......so do you want the bad news?!

Nope. They’re all nostalgic. Don’t care if they’re worth anything.

I wasnt going to comment on value, because i have no clue as to worth.
I was going to say that because the black pan has no markings other than the gate mark (the straight line thru the middle of the bottom), that dates it to roughly the middle os the 1800's.
Around 1890 the cast process was changed so the there was no longer a gate mark.

Interesting Nate

Hey Ken, I think Nate confirmed our suspicions in regards to Charles age..... :grin:
-
Yes he did. Pre 1890, pre-grinder, possibly came over on the Santa Maria. Charles is definitely old.

Point of order
Sergeants don't tell Oficers to do pushups
Except
In branch qualification school
In Airborne school
In Air Assault school
In Ranger School
In RIP
In SFQC
In Sere (Especially in SERE)
In water survival school
In Jungle expert school
At the pistol range
At the rifle range
At the AK-47/shotgun, well, any range...
In some other services' schools
When the warrant looses a bet to the platoon sergeant
When the warrant looses a bet to the first Sergeant
When the Warrant looses a bet or several bets to the Sergeant Major
At any POW camp during training
When the officer is wrong about something that he was foolish enough to make a bet on
Dunker training
When the NCO is a SEAL two times your size (And you're near a body of water)
Some ceremonies
Hail and farwells
Meet and greets
During times the Officer under the influence, lost a bet during any of the above
(Did I mention that already??)
And some other times
But other than these, the NCO does not drop the officer
I guess I proved my point rather well!

Just remember Ken. Youth and skill are no match for old age and treachery.
I still show some younguns a few things now and then
And I usually pay for it the next day...or two
