    Balto 1800s Cast Iron 10 inch Lid

    The condition of the lid is excellent. There is some hard to see black paint on the outside (most likely stove polish) but other than that, it's a peach.

    Not much information out there on "BALTO" cast iron. From what I have read, the general consensus is that "BALTO" was a brand made under the umbrella of another cast iron manufacturer (possibly at the Keen & Hagerty foundry in Baltimore, MA) sometime in the mid-1800s. Our store is only about an hour or two from Baltimore so it makes sense that one of these lids would wind up in the middle of nowhere Delaware. We were very happy to find it!

    These are pretty rare finds and a great piece of Baltimore History.
