Hey gang,
About 6 months ago I won a beautiful Griswold big logo #11 pan online. I was over the moon with excitement as this is a very rare pan. If you're a collector you know that 2's, 11's and 13's are the unicorns of the cast iron world. I followed the shipping updates and was so excited to come home and see a big box on my front porch. Upon opening the poorly packed box i found 2 things, the pan and the handle. I was so bummed. I mean, this isn't something that can be replaced, as i mentioned 11's are scarce! Long story short, I got a full refund and apology from the seller but still, the damage had been done. So i put it in my basement and it's been there since. My questions are:
Do you guys use broken pans? or have ever tried too?
Even though it's broken, does it still have any value?
Any creative ideas on what to do with it?
Thank you!
