Chance to add a Griswold to the family

In Ohio visiting the family. Discovered my mom has a wall full of Griswold. Having read the posts (lurking), I know these are THE cast iron ecooterments to have for an Egg. She said I can take home one or two. Carry on luggage will have some weight to it. What size skillet is best suited for an XL? How do I find the numbers y'all have referenced in the past?

Depends on what you are trying to do and for how many people. At least a 10" skillet, but the XLBGE can handle larger. A dutch oven is nice too.Mmmmmm - Griswold is just plain super stuff.SpringramSpring, TexasLBGE and Mini

You lucky dog! A DO for sure. Get the skillet now, and if you're good you can get more.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX.

Numbers are on back and on the handle. Just remember a number 10 doesn't mean 10 inches. A number 10 is probably around 12 inches

Now to get it back to Texas and put it to use. After seeing @hapster post pictures on his blog, I'm curious to see what I can come up with. I'll be asking for advice next week, I can assure you.

I would use US Mail to send it to yourself. Not that expensive, especially if you have to pay airline luggage rates.XL,L,SWinston-Salem, NC

Yeah, I'm worried TSA may consider the weapons. Probably will have to mail.

I love my 10 " Griswold skillet that my great grandmother used. I bet a Lodge, well seasoned, would be just as good, but it doesn't have the history or sentimental value to it. Her skillet is as smooth as a baby's butt.Look at the bottom for the following:Some of the overlapping logos produced at the foundry included these:
1865-1883 Selden & Griswold
1865-1909 ERIE or "ERIE"
1874-1905 Spider and Web
1884-1912 GRISWOLD'S ERIE
1884-1909 Diamond (with ERIE inside the diamond)
1897-1920 Griswold Manufacturing Company (italic lettering, large cross logo)
1919-1940 Griswold Manufacturing Company (block lettering, large cross logo)
1937-1957 Griswold (block lettering, small cross logo)__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious -
I have a #10. It's perfect and is the CI I use the most out of about 10 pieces.Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.
