Bread stick pan No 22 P/N 954 Variation??
« on: October 24, 2005, 08:49:10 PM »
I have come to the conclusion that confusion with cast iron is going to be a daily occurrence for a long time. As always any help is apprecitated.  Per the Griswold Muffin Pan book by Haussler Copyright 1997 this pan had many variations but I cannot find this one.  Is this even a Erie Griswold?
Thanks,
Sharon

I'd say definitely not and I have never seen a pan like that.  No idea of the maker but there were a lot of companies making those pans in addition to Griswold.

Steve,
Would they have used the same 954 number as Erie Griswold? The number is also on the same cup.

It is very hard to take pictures of the gate marks but there are three of them. Starting at the top, 2nd cup down and around two inches, slight gate mark on the 6th cup down and 2 inch gate mark on second cup from the bottom.  Without the gate marks Per the Haussler book thid would be variation #9 but it does not have Erie in raised letters.  So as usual I am clueless.

I think your pan was made using a Griswold pan to make the pattern or the mold.  While Griswold did make a few items with bottom gates in their earliest days, few were cast that way.  The fact that your pan shows the pattern number indicates the pan (the original from which your pan was made) was made well after Griswold was using side gating so it would not have been made by Griswold.  I don't think I have seen a Griswold muffin pan that is bottom gated.  If there are some shown in the Haussler book that does not mean they were made by Griswold (just because they may be shown in a book).  It all depends on how accurate the information is that the author is presenting.
