Cast Iron collectors? - 04/12/17
I have an old no name 10" chicken fryer that was my mom's.
It developed a crack on the bottom and a friend that's teaches welding offered to try to fix it for me so while cleaning it up today I got to looking at the few stamping's on it and thought I'd ask around to see if anyone could identify the maker.
It has "10 1/2 inch Chicken Fryer" stamped on the bottom as well as a small B below that and another small B at the base of the handle. The top of the handle has a larger (about 3/4" tall) 8 at the base.
The letters/numbers on the bottom appear to be stamped but the 8 is raised like it was part of the casting.
I have no idea how old it is but she had it at long as I can remember and I'm 67.
Any idea?
