Has anybody seen a handle like this before?

I saw these in Rome, GA. Just curious if anybody hasn’t seen a rib like this on the bottom of a handle before.

These two skillets were identical. Raised #8’s. One looks bigger in the pictures because it was sitting on top of a stack of stuff and is closer to the camera.

Ha! Neither. I’ve got big backlog waiting to be cleaned. Gotta keep looking, though. Never know when you might find something really special. ;)

I love the older raised number skillets! ;D  And with bottom gatemarks!?!? :D  Could be pre-LODGE/BLACKLOCK...  ;) :-? ::) I would have bought them both if not cracked or warped!  But that's just me...  :P
