Found some muffin pans x2
« on: February 14, 2014, 10:05:41 PM »
Can anyone tell me the make of these?  They're not in bad shape, they say "Made in USA" and there is a head of a screw in one.

Looks like a newer GHC wagner popover pan.
The screw head mark would have been the head of a screw in the pattern.

Oops,,,,

General Housewares Corporation, who bought out Textron in 1969.
Textron acquired Randall in 1959.
Randall had acquired Wagner in the mid 1950's.

Tracing the history of the companies is another reason to invest in the Blue Book and Red Book!

I would never have known without you guys :)  Maybe when the tax return comes in I can grab one of those books.  You sell them here?
