This is a Randall-era piece from Sidney, Ohio. Depending on the paper label, it could have been labeled either Wagner or Griswold. It is 1960's vintage, and generally not sought after by collectors. I'd be looking for a $5 price on this piece. Please note, there is an example of a Teflon coated piece like this in the Book of Wagner (the Red Book)put out by Schiffer books. Between the Red, Blue and Yellow Books you can find much of the information you are looking for. Ebay can give a much better "current market" value for pieces like these. I have seen these skillets there recently. They were made in sizes 3, 5 and 8. The sizes 5 and 8 were offered in plain cast iron and Teflon coated versions.

Those books you are talking, can I check those out at a library? I did have the one with Griswold and Wagner cast iron in it, but there were a great deal of the pans that I have that were not in there. I have a great deal of Wagner aluminum that I can not find values/prices on any suggestions on books I can get?

I can't help with any aluminum info except for recommending current and ended ebay auctions for price guidance.
