The first and only book for collectors of cast-iron Bundt pans. Includes pans from both the US and Germany.

Many of the cast-iron foundries in Germany were converted to support the
German military during WWI and WWII. Unfortunately for these foundries,
this made them prime military targets. The result was many of the
foundries were destroyed, along with all their records, catalogs,
patterns, and molds. Little information was left behind for collectors
to research and catalog the foundry marks on many of the collectible
pans cast in Germany. Known manufacturers covered include the following:

The author has spent years researching and compiling one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of American cast-iron bundt and European gugelhupf pans in the world. Besides documenting and cataloging the known American Bundt pans, the author exhaustively researched foundry archives, catalogs, and brochures in Germany, France, the Czech Republic, and Poland, gathering information on more than 75 previously undocumented cast-iron gugelhupf pans. The book contains more than 500 images and includes information on identification, rareness, and values.By John BriggsJohn Briggs studied at Le Cordon Bleu and publishes the Cast Iron Chef food blog on Facebook.
