A friend of mine found this at a thrift shop and was wondering if it was a kettle and if so how can he date it.
Thank you in advance. :D

give you $75 and I will send my own label for it. All you have to do is pack it nicely.

I hope your friend picked it up?  If he did a shot of the top vent would be great!  I am going to guess late 50's so we'll see how close i am!  BTW that is a cool Kettle!
Wanted: 18" Platinum any color will work
This is my Kettle there are many like it but this one is mine......

k.a.m.

I will get with him and see what we can come up with. I am new to this old Kettle stuff but I knew he had found a treasure when I saw it. Thank y'all very much.

KAM !!!!!!


That IS the White Buffalo !!!!!

The handle sideways to the vent & the holes in the top side of the bowl handle indicates very old.....the color is not like anything I've seen.....ever....... 8) :o ;D

It's at least 1961.....look at what it says on the lid vent....Weber Bros. Metal Works, or Wood Dale, Ill. & that will tell more.....also, are the little tabs on the vents square or rounded off on the edges?

doesn't really looks like a plainsman...no misting that I can really see.  Would love to see some more pics.

Can see the solid triangle at the bottom...prob a WBMW?  Either way super cool and super rare.
