Reader Henry send in this interesting stamp on the bottom of a vintage Revere Ware piece.
The S on the bottom marks the piece as a second, meaning, there was something wrong with it that it wasn’t up to the standard for sale as a new piece. But given the fact that a number of people have come across well-used pieces with that stamp, seconds were likely perfectly functional nonetheless.
Reader Dave sends us this very deep and clear logo from one of the earliest Revere Ware pieces, likely sometime prior to 1945.
Pieces that old usually have the copper worn down so much the logo isn’t visible anymore.
This ad has been one of my favorites for years, an we have a framed copy hanging in our pantry.
I came across this YouTube video of someone making the receipt on the ad. Enjoy!
If you are looking for a replacement tea kettle, good luck finding a new one; they are few and far between. But there are a lot of used ones for sale on eBay for reasonable prices.
That of course is our eBay helper site for Revere Ware items, revereware.org. Head on over there to see the currently available kettles (and other items) for sale on eBay sorted by size and type.
