Two More From the Same Sale

I went back to the estate sale today with the intention of picking up a decent #3 large logo Griswold, but it was gone. Instead I got two others, now that the prices were a bit reduced. One was a pretty rough Griswold #5 with a grooved handle. Never seen one before. The second was a "Hanks Rome GA." This is about the roughest piece of CI hollow ware I have ever seen. On the level of the "Pitty Pat's Porch" one I picked up years ago. The handles on these two look real similar.

Because Hanks used Griswold skillets to make their patterns.

I read an old post about that. I was hoping there might be a ghost image, but I don't see anything.
