How can I detemine the model of an old Presto pressure canner from which the model number has been removed?
I have an old Presto pressure canner that needs a new gasket. To buy a gasket, though, I need to know the model number. It has a metal label attached to the lid, which I'm told says the model number on it. Unfortunately, the canner's previous owner scrubbed it so vigorously when cleaning it that the engraving seems to have been completely eradicated. I do know that it was originally purchased around 1969. There is another number on the body just below the lid. I think it is something like 222463. I'll try to get the exact number and post it later. So, is there any way I can find out the model number? If not, I may have to simply discard it and buy a new one.
Take out the gasket, measure the diameter and the size of the gasket. I have one given to me by my mother in law from the 50's that fortunately had the model number. A lot of these Presto canners have similar gaskets for years of models. I have a big canner and the gasket was the same for ones made in the 40's to the 60's.
A picture really won't help. They all look alike.
