NOTE: This pan has a bubble off the right side of center, causing it to spin. This is very common in Wapak skillets, with flaws, warps and sand-shifts often being a part of their charm. This skillet will NOT work on glass but it would be great on gas or electric coil!
If you havenât seen a "ghost marking" on a vintage or antique skillet, you should check out this Wapak #9 Cast Iron Skillet! Back when these skillets were made, one of the most expensive parts of the casting process was the patterns that were used to hand manufacture them. Wapakâs, made in Ohio in the 1900âs were known for their reuse of patterns, and often as a result a "ghost" mark, a faint indicator of who originally created the pattern would emerge. The center of the pan has a distinct 701 code from a 3rd series Erie and the ERIE arc logo is visible as well! Ready for use or for to display. A great storyteller skillet to own!

Let customers speak for us
from 392 reviewsI ordered the egg skillet spatula as a gift for a friend, and let me tell you -absolutely perfect! The customer service is fantastic, and I received a handwritten 'thank you' card with my order. I'm incredibly happy with the quality, and will certainly order from this company again!
Nice piece for my collection.
Quality is excellent, packing was A++
What great service! The item was shipped in a timely manner and very well wrapped/protected (which almost never happens). I canât wait to try it out.
This griddle is awesome!! It arrived as described and was super well packaged for shipping. I am very pleased with my new addition. A++++
This is a fantastic piece for my collection. I am so pleased with it. It was shipped and packaged with so much care. It was delivered exactly as described. They also have great communication. I emailed in a question about my order and received a reply quickly. A+++++
My grandfather recently passed and I was given three of his Griswold skillets. I fell in love and had to have more sizes in this collection. This is an amazing pan and has been cleaned/restored and is functioning very nicely. I love it. Great seller and very truthful about the condition of the pan. If youâre considering a purchase here, read and trust the description. I couldnât be happier. Thank you! -David
Extremely satisfied.
Great skillet. Nice shape and I love the history of the foundry. lighter than my #6 Field. Pleasure doing buisness.
So excited to receive the Griswold Deep Fat Fryer! It was packaged great and arrived quickly. It was seasoned to start using today. I will shop with Cast and Clara Bell in the future. 100%
Itâs pretty much exactly what I expected.
Not perfectly cut, but a repurposed old number seven Griswold pan turned into a perfect utensil for me to use on my grill.
Awesome, unique, and great for the grill!
I love the flop griddle. I been looking for one a long time. I intend to use it this winter when I start cooking on my wood burning cook stove.
This pan is fabulous. From the first egg, no sticking at all (as long as you donât overheat the skillet first!) Near mint condition and beautifully restored. If you are looking for the perfect fried egg, youâve found your vessel.This is my second griswold from these folks, and I will keep coming back as they do a really terrific job.
Wonderful piece. In great shape and ready to cook in
