I love seeing the pictures you all post. I am fascinated by all the interesting pieces. I could use a little help here.
My brother asked me to etank his old dutch oven. I told him that I thought it was Chicago Hardware Foundry #88 (based on size), and expected to see the mold markings on the bottom once it came out of the tank.
There are no markings on the bottom (ghost or otherwise). Did CHF have a time when they did not put size on the bottom of the pan? Maybe this isn't CHF? It is shallow dimpled. No bale...just handles.
The lid is still in the etank. Thanks in advance. I look forward to any information I can get.
