Needing info
« on: September 12, 2016, 07:32:34 AM »
Just wondering if anyone knows the maker of this cornbread skillet. Can't find it in the books just curious about the maker. Any info is appreciated. There is a number one inside the handle. Assuming a makers mark?

BSR made your pan. They also made a 6-slice one that is the size of a #3 skillet.

Like Russell said, BS&R. The small number in the handle hanging eye is typically found on items where there would be more than one of them on  a pattern. The pattern that made those would have had multiple  cornbread skillets, so they labeled them thusly for quality control.

Ok thanks mr. Russel. I didn't know that mr. Dwayne I appreciate telling me that. I'm trying to learn all I can about CI so I'll know when I see it and not have to look every piece up or post it.
