Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 2 Cast Iron Skillet
The Wagner Ware Sidney -O- No. 2 is one of the hardest finds in the complete set — genuinely rare in the market in any condition, produced in smaller numbers over a shorter window than any size above it. This example carries the stylized Wagner Ware Sidney -O- logo at 12 o'clock and the size numeral '2' at 6 o'clock, with no catalog number anywhere on the base. This is the documented standard configuration: the only known No. 2 with a four-digit catalog number is the pie logo version. A size-number-only No. 2 with the stylized logo dates to c. 1922–1924 — after the iconic looped W was introduced and before or at the moment the catalog numbering system was being established across the line. It is the smallest skillet in the standard Wagner line with a stylized logo, smooth-bottomed as it always was, from the earliest documented era of the most famous American cast iron mark.
