Club aluminum pots can be found on e-Bay, but they are all newer and hammered aluminum, not plain. The knobs are different and the logo/mark is different. There are plenty of the old 1926 recipe books that go with the entire set on e-bay, but only one of the exact pots is in my home.
Now that I see what the entire set looks like, I can see several other items that are familiar as I was growing up. My mom must have just brought the one here when the cabin was new. And, worst of all, I'm pretty sure I sent all of the others to Goodwill when I was preparing her house for sale when she was in the skilled nursing care facility. Darn! I never even gave it a thought that they would still be useful. I think they were my grandmother's first and she gave them to Mom. Now one is mine!
My pot is used to make cooked candy, pecan pie fillings, Bar-B-Q sauce, and some soups. It is very special because things just do not burn and can simmer for hours. It's not a large pot but an extremely important one to me.
Today I made the barbeque sauce... UM... YUMMY... it has to age for a week or so, but then will go on baked chicken tenders, pulled beef and pork, and used as a dip for chunks of other meat treats. I "might" even share one or two of the little jars I have filled, with my daughter and a couple of friends.
See my pot. Oh! and yes, I have the original lid with knob.
These are my pot bottom marks
