Gate-marked unknown #7 skillet. Very cool for the unique collector or cook!
ABOUT THIS PIECE....
This one's pretty cool because it has all the light weight and feel of an early Wagner or perhaps an early Griswold Victor, with the shallow walls and the super light profile. It's got a really interesting-looking 7 at the 6 o'clock position.
It has all the markings of a reproduction. Very often in the early part of the 1900s, folks who had access to a foundry (usually homemade) would take pans from different companies like Griswold or Wagner, make them into their own pattern, and then produce them to be sold locally. This is the charm of very early cast iron cookware, where the rules were not yet written on how cookware should be regulated and people just shared everything that they had. It moves on glass so it's really only recommended for gas or electric tops.
