Help Identifying this Pan

Can anyone help me identify the maker and time frame for this #5 frying pan? Handle not marked on top, has small pour spouts like BSR, handle not flattened out at pan like a Wagner. Has an exterior heat ring, not inset as referenced for BSR. Also has 1/2" numbering at 6 o'clock positioning, and a dot following the number. No other markings?

Thanks for the help!!! Lorin O.

The small pour lips and neatness of the number place this in BSR's early automation period in the 1950s. It could have been sold labeled either Red mountain or Century (1954), as the change was merely one of branding. When the DISA molding machines were installed in the mid-1960s, the markings changed to the newer style, e.g. "No. 8" and "10-5/8 inches".
