Guess #1. 1956 black 22 weber Brothers Metal Works NOS.

Guess #2. You scored an Ambassador Yellow Ochre. (Catalog/history hint) says the site Historian.

I'm going with guess #2

If it is I may have to make a trip down to Georgia to see it in person.

Exciting!

Yellow Ochre...what an interesting name.  Had to look it up.

Ochre (/ˈoʊkər/ OH-kər; from Greek: ὠχρός, ōkhrós, (pale yellow, pale), also spelled ocher) is a natural earth pigment containing hydrated iron oxide, which ranges in color from yellow to deep orange or brown. It is also the name of the colors produced by this pigment, especially a light brownish-yellow.[1][2] A variant of ochre containing a large amount of hematite, or dehydrated iron oxide, has a reddish tint known as "red ochre".

Ochre and the earth pigments

Ochre is a family of earth pigments, which includes yellow ochre, red ochre, purple ochre, sienna, and umber. The major ingredient of all the ochres is iron (III) oxide, known as limonite, which gives them a yellow color.

    Yellow ochre, Fe2O3 • H2O, is a hydrated iron oxide (limonite) also called Gold ochre
    Red ochre, Fe2O3, takes its reddish color from the mineral hematite, which is an anhydrous iron oxide.
    Purple ochre, is identical to red ochre chemically but of a different hue caused by different light diffraction properties associated with a greater average particle size.
    Brown ochre (goethite), is a partly hydrated iron oxide.
    Sienna contains both limonite and a small amount of manganese oxide (less than five percent), which mades it darker than ochre.
    Umber pigments contain a larger proportion of manganese (five to twenty percent) which make them a dark brown.[3]

When natural sienna and umber pigments are heated, they are dehydrated and some of the limonite is transformed into haematite, giving them more reddish colors, called burnt sienna and burnt umber.

Ochres are non-toxic, and can be used to make an oil paint that dries quickly and covers surfaces thoroughly.

Modern ochre pigments often are made using synthetic iron oxide. Pigments which use natural ochre pigments indicate it with the name PY-43 (Pigment yellow 43) on the label, following the Color Index International system.

Rumor is that it could be cooked on.

I suspect this will be another epic, brain-rattling Harris Special.  Just open the box and give us a peek.

Flattie is a genius nickname for an original kettle.

Thanks! I figured it had a nice ring to it..  Not to be confused with "flat top" for  1969-1999 26.75"ers...
