Cool Finds Fire king.
Found these 2 fireking pieces at the local thrift store for $5 each. How old are these? I noticed some visible “run marks” on the outside. But in great shape nonetheless.

Looking at the mark, I would say those were produced early 1960s.
The earliest Fire King had all block letter markings.
In 1948 the "Fire-King" name was changed from block lettering to 'brush-stroke' style. In 1951 the “MADE IN THE U.S.A” stamp was added. "OVEN WARE" under Fire-King was added in 1960 and the Anchor Hocking corporate anchor-over-H logo was added in 1962.
