Griswold Square Skillets

A square skillet offers more area of cooking surface for its length/width than a round skillet of the same diameter.
 
Not sure if it's why they made them but they do fit better side by side on their 2 and 3 burner gas stoves.
 
They made square lids in both glass and iron (pn #769) that fit both the #768 (corner handle) and #2108 (side handle) skillets. The iron lids are a pretty hard to find piece.
 
They definitely work better for Bacon. I always cut my bacon in half but this pan still handles more than a round #8.
