authentic Griswold?
« on: January 28, 2016, 07:13:11 PM »
I sure hope I finally thrift scored a Griswold. I've been looking for a few years now. If yes, would this be the large logo? 1920's-1940's?
Thanks!

That's the real deal!

Thanks! I know y'all have seen enough pics of run of the mill Griswold skillets, but I'm sure happy about mine. You might just see it again once its restored  ;)

Great skillet to have and even better if you got it at a thrift store.

Abby, We WANT to see it once you get it prettied up.
We love to drool over (well actually away from) beautiful iron. :)

Nice find Abby.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]You have to be real lucky to find those in thrift stores before someone else does. Large logo Block EPU, smooth bottom, c. 1930-39. I use mine whenever I need an 8. Yes, let's see it again when you're done.
