C.I. Pan I.D.

[indaswamp]

Clean up at the Deer camp cook shack turned up these C.I. pans hiding in a cabinet. There are no marks on the pans anywhere. Anyone have any idea what brand they are, how old? Thanks.

first pan looks to be 10" diameter..

second pan is standard 12" pan...

Start by looking close on the bottom . I know you said no marks , but just make sure . Anything post 1960 had to be marked with the country it was made in . Might not have a brand , but will say Made in the USA or where ever . That gives you an idea of the time period to look for .
Some of the older pans had hand struck marks . Hard to see and not very deep .
get them cleaned up and see what shows up .

Thanks chop. Guess I should have said there are no obvious markings. But there is a lot of crud built up on the bottoms and around the outside edges. Will need to burn them off and clean them up, then inspect them close as you said...will report back what I find when I burn them.

Seems like I remember seeing curved handles like that before but can't remember where. Maybe need some spring time maintenance on my melon! Or more brain barley!

Cool . If it was a brand name it should have some kind of mark on it . The clocking of the mark will give clues to who made it . 12:00 , 6:00 are common .
