PRICED TO SELL: This skillet was left out in the elements for part of its early life which created a pitting. We completely restored it so you will have no issues with cooking or future rust. However it has its battle scars and is looking for a good home to help a new cook, or for a Wagner Long Life collector fill in piece.
In the 1940s with the advent of the department store, many cast iron manufacturers were asked to produce Hollow wear with alternate labels. The Long Life series was one that Wagner made and is a collectorβs favorite. Itβs built exactly like a typical Wagner, lightweight, but sturdy for heavy use in the kitchen! Wonderful egg skillet for yourself or for a gift for a friend!
- DISCLAIMER: We have prepared this piece to be ready to use or displayed in a collection. All pieces are vintage and therefore are not in perfect condition. Please use the photos as description. History of use means these pieces will have small marks and inconsistencies which we feel give them special charm. All items are sold as is and we have done our best to present them as such. Please review all pictures and ask for further clarification if needed. Thank you! - CastandClaraBell
