Today I was in beautiful downtown Winnie, Texas at Larrys Old Time Trade days. To my surprise (I had been there before) there was a good bit of CI to look at. I bought what i think is an unmarked Wagner 11 1/4 inch round handled griddle and a small trivet. The trivet is marked with a 1 and the letter B. I have no clue who made that one.
I spoke to a dealer who had a nasty pile of 33 rusty and/or greasy cast iron skillets and lids. He wanted $100 for the whole pile. The only thing I could definitely identify was a Lodge #10 lid, with the bullet droppers. The rest were caked up, rusted up mystery pieces from #3 to #8. I declined the offer and he immediately dropped it to $75. I was tempted. I could use that #10 lid. Then I thought about how much work it would be to find out what was under the crud and I walked away before I bit off more than i could chew.
The hunting is always the fun part.
Please let me know if the link isn't good. I still have problems with Google +
