The 'Slant' logo (slanted GRISWOLD lettering) and the 'EPU' designation ('ERIE PA U.S.A.' beneath the cross logo) are dating features collectors use to place a skillet in the 1920s–1930s. A slant-logo or slant/EPU No. 8 in good condition typically sells for roughly $60–$200, with cleaner or scarcer sizes higher. As with all Griswold, condition (flatness, no cracks, even seasoning) sets the final price within the range.
What drives the value
Logo/EPU variant
Slant and slant/EPU are earlier than the plain small-block; scarcer variants lift value.
Condition
Flat, crack-free, clean seasoning as always.
Recent sold comparables
Sold prices from public auctions and estate sales; values fluctuate by rarity and condition. Where public sales are thin, ranges are hedged, not firm.
Frequently asked
What does EPU mean on a Griswold?
'EPU' is collector shorthand for the 'ERIE PA U.S.A.' text under the cross logo, a feature that helps date the piece.
Is a slant logo rare?
It's earlier and scarcer than the plain small-block logo, so it usually sells for more, though not at spider or rare-size levels.
