My finds from this week, All from thrift stores

WWSO 1058 Heat Ring for 12.99
Vollrath #5 for 6.00
and a #3 for 6.99 thats so cruddy I can't tell, but I think it's a WWSO smooth bottom.

I'm fairly new to this so this is the best day of searching I've had so far. They're in the bath now, I'll add the finished products when done!

I can't wait to see how that fist super crusty one turns out. Any clue as to what it is?

I THINK it could be a Wagner Ware Sidney -O-, but I really don't know. The charactersitics do not appear to be from any major manufacturer other than Wagner. I pulled it out today, but still way too much crud to see anything. maybe tomorrow....
 
Cleaned up! I couldn't get the dark spots out of the Wagner, but it's flat. I am really impressed with the Vollrath, cooking surface is VERY smooth. The #3 is unmarked other than a "V" on the underside of the handle, I'm guessing an unmarked Wagner? It's very well made, thin all around and super smooth cooking surface.

They cleaned up very nice. I would say that they all have a lot of good years worth of use in them.

I would like to get a few vintage pieces of CI to use, but I have a small kitchen and just don't have room for any more stuff. I work 2nd shift so I don't get to cook much now anyway, so I guess it is for the best.
