Made between 1897-1903, per the "Trademark" section on this wonderful site.
Curious as to how many of you find the "Sidney" in the wild? This is the first one I have come across after doing this for a couple of years.
By the way, that may be fire damage on the bottom of the pan. When I took it out of the etank (one day) the entire pan reeked of campfire smoke. Two days in the tank to get it clean. And yes, a fire damaged pan is very difficult to re-season. I finally got there, and it is a great pan. The fire damage did not affect the cooking surface.
I just wish people wouldn't try and clean their pans using a bonfire.
