Here is a #8 skillet with original box. Notice the cooking surface is not ground.

Interesting how on these smoothed bottom advertising skillets the handle are so different, especially the hang hole. As Lodge had that small smoothed bottomed set, makes me wonder if one spawned the other.

About that advertising skillet. I talked to someone who grew up in Whiting Indiana. Its about 15 miles from me. They said that there was indeed a Kozacik Hardware store there. I have seen several and have a very nice one with the label.

 How in the world did they get with BSR to cast that skillet?

Then again, They no doubt sold quite a bit of BSR products  in their hardware store. Whiting is a big hard working blue collar oil refinery town. BSR could have had a great salesman that said    You know, we can put your name on a skillet!!  And rest they say is history.
