Lodge?

[Jeffrey R.]

2 skillets here. Pour spouts look the same and both handles look the same.

The first one I am thinking #10 Lodge.
The next one I have not seen markings like this. 8CA

Those are both BSR, the former being Century series and the latter Red Mountain

Come down south and you'll get sick of seeing them

they both look like BSR. The first looks like Century series and the second is Red Mountain series. Take a peek here:

I tend to think even that RM style marked one is more likely Century era as well, what with the thick walls and small spouts. Jeff, you need to spend some time perusing http://www.castironcollector.com/unmarked.php

I like to stick with Griswold, Wagner and early gate marked. But when you bid on a lot, you take the Bad with the Good. :covri:

I am already sick of seeing them.:icon_rofl:

So we are looking at the #10 being BSR Century series 1960 forward
and the #8 1950 - 1959? We good now.

Thank you

They are really great user pans. I'm tempted to say maybe the best, just because they're built like tanks and are much less prone to warping. I feel like the lids are more plentiful, too, for some reason.

That said, they're not much to look at relative to the competition.

They both have seen little to no use. Heavy yes, hate to pay the shipping on the #10. :mrgreen:

People on ebay are buying up BSR like crazy. I'm not to proud to make a buck selling a cleaned up BSR pan. They seem to be easy enough to come by at a rock bottom price. Heck I got one last week for $3 and it cleaned up real pretty.
