Shirley, I have the same bowl with the N backwards as yours is. Same pattern except no dark glaze around the outer rim. I picked it up at some little shop. Almost got rid of it today but thought I would look it up on the net. which led me to you. If you have any info please forward. Thanks

Julie, I have never been able to find anything about this company. I have had a number of people write to me with a message similar to yours… that they have a bowl with the name, but the “N” in “Sanitary” is not backwards like it is on the bowl I have. I would love to have some information too… if you ever find out more about this I wish you would share it with me.

Shirley,
I have just arrived home from an antiquing trip and bought 2 bowls of this brand. Did you ever find out anything about the manufacuturer? I would be curious to know. One of the bowls is a pail-type bowl with a metal handle that was factory made. Any information that you have gathered would be greatly appreciated. I included my e-mail address for you as well. I would like to her from you.

I have the exact same bowl. It was my grandmothers. It has a date of 1923 that I know that my grandmother had put on there as she used to date everything and I’m so glad she did. She would make her pie crust and biscuits in it. I also have several other vintage kitchen items that were my grandmothers, my moms and my mother-in-law. Thanks for the information on this.

I, too, have this lid. When my grandmother died, I got a box full of broken pieces that I tried to put together but could not- I’m sure it was the bowl. The ‘N’ in Sanitary is correct, but the ‘N’ in cooking is backwards on mine! Please let me know if you find out any info- I have run into a dead end! I do know that it was my greatgrandmothers, and she ran a boarding house. I wondered if the piece was sold for commercial use???

Hi, I have the same bowl but the “n” in sanitary is not backwards. It is a favorite bowl that I think I got at a thirft shop. Have you learned anymore information regarding the hx. The bowl never chips etc. and I love the earthy looks of the bowl. Thanks Sharon
