Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 4 Cast Iron Skillet

The Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 4 is a scarce size — acknowledged by collectors as one of the harder sizes to find in any configuration, and particularly so in the stylized logo heat-ring era. At 7 inches across the top rim it is the smallest size in the standard Wagner skillet line to carry a heat ring, and it is where the downward heat-ring progression of the complete set stops. This example, catalog number 1054, carries the bold, large-format stylized logo character the Cast Iron Collector associates with the earlier end of the catalog-number era, a heat ring intact, and all markings legible. It is the one that takes the most searching to find, and it holds its place at the lower boundary of the heat-ring configuration in the SSC complete set.
