Vintage Wardway 1433 by Wagner Cast Iron Skillet with Heat Ring - Ready for use!

A rare find reconditioned and seasoned once showing only minor pitting and wear from use. This skillet does have a slight wobble on a glass top surface and would be best suited for a gas or electric element stove. Equivalent in size to a #9 skillet and has 2.25" deep sides.

Cast Iron Skillets make excellent gifts and can be passed down from generation to generation. The memories created will last forever just as the skillet will with proper care.

Produced 1930s and later by Wagner for Montgomery Ward. Other than trademarks and catalog numbers, apparently identical to Wagner-marked pieces. Store brand pieces enjoy collectible status and are typically among the best of user pieces.

In addition to trademarked and unmarked ware, several manufacturers produced store brands. Like unmarked ware, store brands allowed increased sales in markets like chain department stores, where a quality product was demanded at a reasonable price, but which still satisfied the retailer's target profit margin.

Store branding also gave the retailer the ability to associate, in its customers' minds, quality goods with the seller itself. The most well-known store brands were produced for Sears, Roebuck & Co. and Montgomery Ward. In much the same way the Sears Kenmore appliances are rebadged units from makers like Whirlpool, so too were housewares like Best Made, Merit, and Puritan.
