I'm unsuccessful in finding any information leading to anything about the skillet. I've looked into books I have. I've looked online, I've looked here on this forum. I'm not finding anything about it. Any help is appreciated about value.

Happy Hunting!

Ahhhh aluminum ware!  Amazingly Wagner made more items in aluminum than iron. But don't let everyone know that.  I think most of this ware disappeared during recycling drives for WWII.  Aluminum usually has a value of about half of iron, unless really odd.  I have one of these that was never used.  Value is probably around $50 as a guess.

Recent Ebay Sale.  https://www.ebay.com/itm/335124299571

I would not have given that myself, based on the condition alone.

Will's Answer is more on point, IMO.

(and thanks to Will and other Wags members here, I  have developed a wee bit of 'problem' with amassing Wagner Cast Aluminum items... :crazy:

Thanks you for your knowledge about this pan, not big on aluminum, Im from the south so we are required to only cook on Iron,  but aluminum is a lot easier to pack up and move with ya. HAHA.

Cook what ya like, and eat what you love, you'll never gain a pound of hatred! 

Thanks all, happy to be here, Iron hunting has been a hobby until now, now an obsession!

No, I am not addicted.  Not in the least.  I can quit any time I want to. I just don't want to.
