Marion 12?

Hi folks, I'm new to this forum and to cast iron skillets. My parents recently sold their farm and as I was going through boxes of old clothes, I found a cast iron skillet in very bad shape. I'm in process of refinishing it and was looking for info about it. On the bottom it says MARION and the number 12. I have researched this and can't find anything about it EXCEPT one post that said it was rare.

Anybody able to help me out??

A little bit of info here:

The fact that it's a 12 is not uncommon but it is a size that's harder to find. Not much I'll give you but you never know.

I read the info on both sites. Marion seems rare, I found one for sale on eBay (#8) and haven't seen anymore. Just wondered if other members have Marion skillets? If so, what sizes?
