Cast Iron Lids / Covers

Definitely late BSR iron cover. Bottom of 2nd looks Lodge, but handle is not like any Lodge I'm familiar with. Profile of its top doesn't have that usual Lodge flat center.
 
The first lid is definitely BSR Century series. Century series had two different sizes for a # 8 lid; 1950's-1960's were 10 5/8 in. 1970's-1980's were 10 1/4 in. Just make sure you're getting the right year when selecting the skillet. I have sets of both years and the writing on the lids are identical to the writing on the skillets. I believe the resizing was done to accommodate glass lids produced during the later years. I love these durable and heavy skillets for outdoor use.
