Did this come in more than one size?  Trying to find a lid to match the deep fryer

Steven, the 1402 is a Combination Fryer Roaster, which came in both black iron and Silverlite.

It is a deep skillet with a regular skillet for its cover.  (hinged lid)

Thanks for the reply Cheryl.  I was just wondering if they came is size 8 and 9 or if there was only one size.  I have the deep fryer that is 11" across, but the Skillet lid I found, the seller says it is "about 10 1/2".  I think they're a match, but may not be if the set came in different sizes.

The 1402 was one size.. listed as 103/4" diameter.

The challenge with these is that there were other sets.

The 1403 was a "5 star Cooking Set" with diameter of 10 1/2"..  That set, the cover was shallower and was called a griddle cover.

and then there is a 1401 double skillet...
