Griswold 10 Dutch Oven

[Brian Dodge]

I was given this dutch oven today to restore. It is a Griswold 10 (on the lid) and has on the bottom The Griswold Mfg. Co. Cast Iron Tite-Top Dutch Oven Griswold 310A Pat'd Mar 16 20. I am really looking forward to restoring it and wanted to share. Any additional information anyone can provide will be appreciated. :grin:

I think that speaks for itself. First class nice.

Were you given it? Or just restoring for them? I hope the former! :biggrin:

I'm just restoring it. I was given these nice little trivets though for helping to give it new life. And I enjoy researching the history of this old cookware.

Ooooooo....looks like a slant logo too.

Ooooooo....looks like a slant logo too.

The lid is slant logo. The bottom is block logo.

Here is the bottom all cleaned up. Has PA on it which I know is Pennsylvania. Anyone know what the U is for? I didn't even see it before.

 

[Brian Dodge]

Forget that last question about the U. I see in the photo now an S. Think I just answered my own ? LOL

 

[KevinE]

Look hard enough and you can probably find the "A" to go with that US. I can clearly see the Erie in the photo.

Looks like a ghost mark of ERIE PA USA

Pretty much got it done now. Maybe 1 or 2 more seasonings.

This is fun--I can see U. S. A., but not Erie. A transition piece?
