Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 13 Cast Iron Skillet
The Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 13 is one of the two scarcest sizes in the standard Wagner skillet line. At 14¼ inches across the top rim and 12¾ inches at the cooking floor, it sits just below the No. 14 in the size progression and shares its rarity, its heat ring, and its commercial character. Never produced in smooth-bottom form, never intended for the household stove, the No. 13 was built for boarding houses, farm kitchens, and camp cookhouses — anywhere a cook worked at volume. This example, catalog no. 1063, is in exceptional restored condition with deep even seasoning, fully legible markings, and both handles intact. It occupies the penultimate position in the Steve's Seasoned Classics complete Wagner Ware Sidney -O- skillet set, No. 0 through No. 14.
