Odorless Skillet Question
« on: February 15, 2010, 08:26:53 PM »
Did the Griswold odorless skillet (the one patented 1893) have a lid? If so, what did it look like. Just curious if I have to keep a look out for one.
Thanks

I believe that they all came with a lid??  I think they were thin steel or tin or something and they did not survive well.  I don't know if any of them were ever marked??

They are dome shaped and I hope someone has a picture for you soon.

Blue book says cover was an option.. That info must be in an early Gris catalog.. I don't see how it would work proper without cover..

Ed, I have three Griswold Catalogs, that are what I would say are old. The 1890/91 Catalog, the 1895/96 catalog, and the Blue Circa 1904 catalog, and neither one of them have the "odorless skillet" in them, nor even mentions them. Now they do have the broiler in them, and they are show with a tin lid, that is optional, but no "odorless skillets", I wonder whats up with that?  :-/

I am not so sure that the odorless skillet covers, and the broiler covers were not one and the same.

Thanks for the information! I also wonder if the odorless skillet would work properly without a cover, but I don't have a wood stove to test it  :-/  Maybe someday.
