Griswold 14" +2
« on: June 22, 2016, 01:35:48 AM »
Hi guys, I'm a picker from Seattle and bought an abandoned storage unit with some neat items including a couple cast iron pieces.

Have a 14" Griswold with I assume a non original handle. Says "Cast Iron Skillet    14" "Erie PA., U.S.A." "718"

The other two pieces I'm not as sure about however.

The dutch oven has no markings on the lid and on the bottom of the oven "Cast Iron   Tru-Tite Dutch Oven" along top and "PAT'D Mar 16. 20"" along the bottom with I believe an A above it.

The griddle just says "11 1/4 Inch Skillet Griddle   Made In USA"

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking to pass these along as even though they are cool I need to keep flipping to keep going.

Thanks, glad I didn't toss it now  ;)

Been reading about the electrolysis cleaning process, think I'm going to give it a try later this week when I have some free time. I'll post pics of them after, hopefully that will help with identifying the other two.
