Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 12 Cast Iron Skillet

The Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 12 in the Steve's Seasoned Classics collection is not simply a large, scarce skillet — it is a dated document. The stylized Wagner Ware Sidney -O- logo positioned at the center of the base, combined with the complete absence of a catalog number, places this piece in the narrowest datable window in the entire Wagner Ware Sidney -O- skillet series: approximately 1922 to 1924. This is the earliest configuration in which the iconic stylized W logo appears on a Wagner skillet, cast before the four-digit catalog numbering system was adopted in 1924 and before the logo settled permanently into the 12 o'clock position. A scarce size made rarer still by an early mark, this No. 12 carries the oldest datable stylized logo configuration of any skillet in the SSC complete set.
