Wapak Erie ghost skillet

When an old Erie skillet was used by Wapak for a pattern and the old markings on the Erie skillet not completely filled in (or the filling material wore away during use), the ghost markings showed up on this and similar pieces.

 

G. F. Filley toy tea kettle

 

No.5 small TM skillet white with green speckling. A very unusual Griswold piece circa mid 1950's.

 

Griswold Hearthstone skillet. A product of General Housewares Corp., owner of Griswold and Wagner from 1969 until about 1999. Cast in the Wagner Foundry.

 

Buck & Wright Dutch Oven. circa 1860?

 

No.3 Favorite oval roaster. Favorite used a different numbering system on these pots. These roasters are rare.

 

Good Health skillet, nickel plated. Rarely seen in nickel plate. Little is known about these Griswold made skillets or where they were marketed. c.1930's?

 

Wagner Half Skillet. Other makers called this a shallow skillet.

 

Wagner made Griswold No.5 skillet. Not a collector item but interesting for the different trademark. This c.1970-80 skillet may be a General Housewares product. Many pieces made after about 1960 were sized in inches instead of the trade number (this skillet still has the trade number 5 on the handle) and were marked Made in USA. Note the factory grinding in excellent condition which shows the skillet has had little use.
