A 20" Wagner-Made Hotel Skillet ad in 1967
« on: July 05, 2023, 06:56:04 PM »
Looks like they still made them for the camping enthusiasts. Here is a page from a 1967 catalog with the big #20 skillet and also what looks like a tite-top Dutch Oven. A later page has a Griswold skillet display rack with skillets from sizes 3 through 14 available.
The aluminum Dutch Ovens on this page would have been from Scott Manufacturing out of Ohio at this time. Later in the catalog is the pliers/lid lifter that Scott made. GSI Outdoors didn't buy out Scott until the 1980's.

The manufacturers would be turning over in their graves if they knew what some of these pieces sell for these days.

That's true Jim. Even the "unmarked Griswold" #20 brings good money in online auctions today.
