Hello from MN
« on: January 17, 2020, 07:43:38 AM »
I found a Glen Blue grill in my backyard and I am trying to ID it.

Maybe 1962?

Would love some help on this.

I am maybe selling it on CL or Ebay but am pretty in love with the color and vintage...

Wow!  Many of us have will wish we could find such things our back yards!

1962 or 1963 is probably about right. 

If you weren’t 10 hours away, I’d be there now.

Good luck with your sale.  You will get many inquiries.

Nice find, man! I'd clean it up and cook on it a couple times before/if I got rid of it.

I find it interesting that catalog you shared says "cook indoors." My how times have changed!

There’s no book value.  It is worth whatever someone is willing to pay.

Nice find.  It's a 63, last year of the metal lid handles.  In 1964, Weber transitioned from metal lid handles to wood handles.  The 1962 and earlier lids, the handles were configured horizontal to the lid vent.  Here's an example of a 62.

This is awesome, thank you!
