Now you know, from WallysMalls .Com unmarked Made in the USA vintage Cast Iron

History of Collectibles from WallysMalls.com. Are you treasure hunting? be aware that most vintage to Antique Cast Iron will not say Made in the USA in them. this was added in the mid 1960s as cheaper imported Cast iron from Taiwan was hitting the USA. they started stamping pans to let Americans know they were American Made pans.
Notice the font on the Wagner pan in the video and the Made in the USA? That font was only used in the USA for Wagner. if you see a pan with that font, it's an American made pan by Wagner and people collect and use them.
Notice the oddball sized fraction on the BSR pan? BSR made the odd fractions to make their pans a hair bigger. BSR never stamped any of their products with their name. So if you find pans like that, they are Collectible and people love to use them and great buys.

Most collectors don't want anything as new as the 60s. I don't touch the Made In U.S.A. pans but there's more cooks than collectors. I restore pieces for two estate sale companies and this allows me to see what sells. While I don't value it Asian cast iron sells very well to cooks while a collectable piece might sit there a while. It's all about the money.
