Unmarked and Old Lodge

Picked these up Friday, cleaned and seasoned. I think the Lodge is old just because of the way the #3 looks. The other pan is unmarked except for an I or 1 on the bottom of the handle. Would appreciate any help on identifying. The Lodge is in one pic, the unmarked in the other two.

Always need a shot of the entire bottom including handle when requesting ID help.
 
Here's full pics of the top and bottom of the unmarked skillet. I believe the # 3 is from the '40's or '50's.

Any ideas on that unmarked since I've posted new pics? Cooking surface is no where as smooth as the Lodge.
 
You'll need to be a little more patient, the forum shouldn't be thought of as real time answers on demand, and bumping threads is frowned upon. With time, you'll begin to be able to spot handle styles that just have "import", as in Asian or Mexican, written all over them. The Lodge is ca. 1950s. Being a small piece, the 1 on the handle likely signifies its pattern was one of multiple patterns on a single automated molding match plate.

Sorry I apologize, I didn't mean to bump threads. Thank you for the information.
