Just won my first Auction. Two Wagner skillets, 10" and 11". With shipping it will be $50 for both of them. I have an 8" Griswold, probably my grandmother's saved by my dad when Grandma "modernized" to copper-clad stainless steel. Based on that one skillet, I am thinking $50 for two more smooth-as-silk skillets is a good buy. From the description, these have been used fairly recently, they aren't rusted finds dug out of a long-abandoned shed (although Grandma's had been in a shed for probably 30 years, in a nice, dry climate).

My 8" skillet has been the go-to for several years now, but now the teen-agers are demanding bigger portions, so I have been looking for a bigger pan. The Griswold is great for frittatas, I can cook one and slip it right out onto a serving plate with hardly any sticking. I'm hoping for something similar with one of these Wagners.
Wish me luck!
