Wagner Wares of this era are equal in quality to Griswolds of the time. This was an estate sale find but has been professionally restored. It is a real piece of vintage Americana from about 80 years ago!
No cracks or chips. It does wobble, some spin, does not sit completely flat. Not suitable for glass top stoves but will work well on a gas stove, in the oven, on the grill, or over a campfire. Minor utensil wear to cooking surface but overall in great shape. It is rust free, professionally restored via electrolysis. It has been seasoned with multiple coats of grape seed oil.
