Went Shopping Today- I am Excited about this one!!!
« on: June 30, 2017, 12:41:57 AM »
So, I am making progress toward completing the Griswold Patty Mold Group.

This made me feel like turning some Cartwheels!


Do you know why?? 

I felt like I hit the Trifecta.......

Very nice.  I had to look a long time for my set.  No indication in the catalog that they came in a box.

For those that haven't seen them, here's a picture to show the difference in size.  They strike you as BIG when you see them.

Tom

p.s.  Do you have the unmarked set?

Didn't mean to be so cryptic.  The No. 2.

Here are some pictures.

The early box outside was red in color.  The handle shown on the label is the Andresen handle, but the handle in the box is the Griswold handle.

Also included a comparison of the 3 Griswold heart deep irons, unmarked, 2 and 3, and the Andresen heart (little feet on bottom).

By the way, I wouldn't buy an unmarked set without the box.

Cheryl, Have been working on my set. I do have the unmarked #2 with box. And the marked later set in box. I still have to catch up with you though. :)
