John Sexton skillet?

Friend found a similar one today...I could not really find much information on it. Has anyone encountered one of these before?

Looks like an advertising skillet, Possibly a Lodge 3 notch although the handle looks a little different but it is hard to tell from the photo.
 A quick internet search shows a few more photos and it is either a Lodge 3 Notch or a copy

The Company is Rykoff Sexton Food Services Company and they primarily sell food so it is doubtful they made the skillet.

They also have a culinary catalog which has food preparation items in it including some skillets, But my guess is they had these made for some type of promo...you could try to contact them to learn more about your skillet
