What Years Did They Make a Gray Kettle in the US?

[AZRaptor]

I'm going to look at an MBH and old Smokey Joe tomorrow and I'm trying to figure out if the kettle is originally gray or just a faded black. Did they make gray kettles during the MBH era?

True grey kettles:

1963 22.5 two tone grey mist aka "The Plainsman" had a metal lid handle.

1990-1991 light grey 22.5 BAR B KETTLE and OT+/MT.

Late 2000's Crate & Barrel Performer dark grey.

That's correct. The original grey was much lighter

I have a P code gray performer, so that would add 1992 -1993 wouldn't it?
