The bible

This is one of a set of two books that comprise the "bible" of Griswold and Wagner cast iron cookware. Buy both books together. They will tell you most everything you need to know about classic, high quality cast iron.

Cast Iron Pots

My husband began attending estate auctions and buying cast iron utensils. We needed a book to tell their worth. This was a good beginning one.

The Book of Griswold and Wagner

This book is a "must have" for anyone interested in cast iron cookware. It is great for identifying pieces, and gives histories of the major U.S. foundries. The photographs are exceptional. I found the information on reproductions to be most helpful. Many people complain that authors inflate the prices in their guides so that their own collections become more valuable. I feel that this book conveys the most accurate and fair pricing possible, taking into account the many variables that affect value, such as demand, true rarity, and reproductions.

The Bible of Griswold collecting

Being a collector, dealer and trader with my own online cast iron business..., this the what most collectors call the Bible of Griswold or the BLUE book. It is well laid out with great pictures. The author, Dave Smith, is friendly and easy to approach with questions and is very knowledgeable. It is the first book I go to.

Consider it the Bible of Cast Iron

Finding the author online and then finding his book. What a great book for the first time collector, the continuing collector or the expert. Precise information presented in and easy to read format. Great pictures and lots of neat little notes. A sample of the pricing of any and all. Includes a short history of most of the companies that have made cast iron cookware, and other items in cast iron.
