Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 10 Cast Iron Skillet

The Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 10 smooth-bottom skillet, catalog number 1060A, represents the later collector era of Sidney production — cast after Wagner eliminated the heat ring from the standard No. 10 pattern, and before SIDNEY -O- was removed from the logo after 1959. At 11¾ inches across the top rim it is a large household size, a genuine working pan built for family cooking rather than institutional volume. Two features of the base make this example particularly worth documenting: the smooth bottom that places it firmly in the c. 1935–1959 window, and a non-standard rotation of the logo position — a pattern-specific characteristic of the 1060A mold recorded here as part of the SSC collection record.
