Forest City Foundries Co. — Niagara Furnaces Mini Spider Skillet

A Cleveland foundry's miniature spider skillet — cast iron advertising in its most literal form. The Forest City Foundries Co. sent these three-legged miniatures out with their salesmen to sell Niagara Furnaces, and cast their city's own nickname into every one. The second piece in SSC's Cleveland's Forgotten Foundries grouping, documented as found with original patina intact.
