So, I was a little jealous after a friend got a Wagner 1891 D/O w/ Pyrex lid. Nothing special, but in good shape for cooking. He brought it to me for stripping and seasoning. And I'm out today, Goodwill hunting, and come across a D/O w/o lid, a Wagner Ware Sidney O. The main website lists it from around the 1920s, so I think I did well. It was marked $10.00, but if I signed up for their savings program, I get 30% off it, making it $7.00.
So, I'm guessing the original lid was CI. The Pyrex one from the 1891 fits, and looks like a somewhat standard Pyrex 14 lid(9 3/4", lip to lip), so I should be able to find one.
No questions on this one. I just wanted to brag. I don't get this lucky very often. I'm off to strip it.
