I was wondering if anyone is able to help me date this Griswold cast aluminum #808 gem pan? 8 cups, 4-4 and no bars. It has the slant logo. I plan on cleaning it up, but would love to know more about it.

The "slant logo" TM would likely place it ca. 1905-1930. Aluminum restoration precludes the use of lye and electrolysis, both of which will dissolve aluminum.

Estate auction tomorrow. Lot of everything but CI. Have two pieces, one Wapak skillet and a Wagner T kettle. Can't tell from the photos if real McCoy or repos or condition. Indian head looks kind of wore off and not to sharp. Will see tomorrow after a hundred oil almps, etc. sells. .
