<p>[QUOTE="Quigi, post: 142354, member: 2211"]I could find info on the company and their manufacturing techniques which let me place it from 1839-1860 as I think that's when they eliminated gate marks, but can find no data on any skillet or frying pans made by them other in scanned catalogues. I couldn't even find any pics of same era skillets of similar construction. As for decoding the stamps, I would assert that the 14 In is for 14 inches in measurement at it's narrowest point and that No 9 is for the style as it is a very large oval...but's that's just a guess. The 'Patent Enamelled' stamp I believe represents their 'new at the time' enamel formula that didn't have arsenic or lead in it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
