Camp Oven ID

[Russell S.]

I'm not going to be able to post a picture I'm out of town. but wanted to know what company put incised numbers on camp ovens. I'm looking at one with #14 on bottom and on top of lid. Also has smaller L9 on lid. Has the bail attachment with one hole not two like the modern lodge?? Thanks!

If the number is at 12 o'clock on the bottom, and at midway between handle and 6 o'clock on the lid, sounds like Lodge.

 

[Russell S.]

That's it! Thanks, what time frame was that style?

 

[Doug D.]

1950s - early 60s.

Thanks again, it's going home with me. Not as cheap as I'd like but it's less than a new one that size and has more history.
