Oh baby, this one is a special one! If you want a skillet that lives in rarified air, this would be one of them. Often we are asked the challenging question of something like...."which one piece would you HAVE to have if you could only have one" or similar. Well, these Erie skillets are a perfect example. Griswold made Erie skillets are the earliest versions of the brand, made in the late 1890‘s. Early makers made their skillets by hand, and the very first Erie skillets were marked by makers with flowers, pineapples, and even a nautical anchor. This #9 skillet has the "A" makers mark which is to the right of the #9 at the six o‘Clock position.  We are intrigued by the unmistakable circle in the middle of the piece.  This looks very similar to the most sought after pattern, the #8 Erie "Spider".  We don't have measurements of the spider so its tough to say definitively.  However it sure does look like this pattern had a circle in the center, reminiscent of the spider logo.  

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. Their history of use means small marks and inconsistencies, which we feel give them a 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! - Cast & Clara Bell
