Casserole ID

[Tom Penkava]

Not sure on the actual deminsions, I would think the difference would be comparable to the diminsion difference on same size skillets.
Hey Chris, there is another thread on these somewhere with pictures of the #10 casserole.  Who was that member from the south ( Mississippi ?? ) that had leg/health issues last year.  He had some terific garage sales "in the sun" and commented about how hot the iron got.

You might PM Bobby A. , I seem to remember that he had some of each size.

Tom ,
  You are thinking of Jimmy Hale.
  As near as I can tell, this thread, and the one I linked, are the only threads on this forum with BS&R casserole dishes.

Yep, Jimmy Hale.  I think he had a #10 casserole that he sold on one of his garage sales.  I thought he posted a pic for identification of it.
Then Bobby Addington has a lot of BSR, but he has been kind of quiet this last year.  Am still looking for the "Trail Boss" skillet he wanted.

I think I have the brother to it...in a wooden handle skillet I got from an auction today.

Rick, can you show the top side of that with the wooden handle.  I am perty sure you have 1 of a 9 piece set consisting of 3 skillets, 2 sauce pans, 1 DO, 3 interchangable glass lids only made for a couple years in the 70s.  That was their "Good Bess" line, but was not all that popular and discontinued.
Here we go again, Chris, there is a thread from Dwayne with a couple pictures of the Good Bess line that he got from one of his contacts at BSR.

 Tom,
  Somehow I missed this question earlier. The only threads I could find about the "Lady Bess" line were on the members side, and had no pictures. I do know the pictures you mean though. They are on the foundry list under BSR and show the box, a paper insert, all of the parts to the set, new with labels.
   According to what Dwayne said in one of those threads, the 2 glass lids were made by Anchor Hocking. BSR cast the items to fit existing Anchor Hocking lids to keep the price down on the set.
