Friday at 5 I stopped by a small shop thinking they were open till 6, but nope they closed at 5, but as I stepped in the door I immediately seen a piece, checked it out briefly before excusing myself and said I'd be back tomorrow. From memory I poured through the red and blue books knowing I had seen this design before, then I spotted it, I believe it's a Wagner R muffin pan with the cutouts. I'm hoping after it comes out of the lye tank my suspicions will be confirmed. Is that what it looks like to you guys? According to the book the one with citoutsnis harder to find, is this still true? Also I couldn't find any sold eBay listings, any idea of a value? I snatched it up for $14.

While I was there I seen a few other pieces and ended up with all but one of these from the same place, most expensive piece was the waffle iron at $25

Can't make out any markings yet on the waffle iron but I can see it maybe has the markings like 8 x 9 raised on the paddles, has anyone seen one like this before? Once it's hot how do you lift the lid? Is there supposed to be rings in the holes on the paddles? It obviously was made to work over an open stove eye because the entire assembly rotates on the center side posts and the hinge transfers from one side to the other. I figured I'd take a chance for $25

And lastly, I didn't need another large pot, but found this one interesting because it actually had name markings on it, so for $15 I decided to grab it, it appears to be in great shape but after I took the pic I noticed above the gate mark it may have some a line of pitting, I'll see after cleanup, if it's not good the wife will use it for a potted plant on the porch. Never heard of this foundry, internet search says Buffalo, NY, are their pieces common or not so much?

The icing on the cake was I spotted one last pot, My mom bought it for $15, turned out to be a Wagner Yankee kettle #5
