Interwar Peak (1918–1945) · Skillet
Wagner Ware No. 9 Sidney Skillet (1059)
Used price$95–$150live on eBay
The Wagner Ware No. 9 is about 11¼ inches across the top — one size up from the common No. 8, not an equivalent of it. It carries the "stylized" Wagner Ware logo (a single large fancy W serving both words, with SIDNEY and -O- below) and catalog number 1059, usually with a letter (1059 B, 1059 C). Wagner introduced the stylized logo around 1922; heat-ring versions with the catalog number are the earlier castings (about the mid-1920s to mid-1930s) and smooth-bottom versions follow up to about 1959. Heat-ring pans tend to ask a little more; they cook the same. The cooking surface was milled smooth. Before buying: look for a clear 9 and 1059 under the logo, test for rocking and spinning on a flat surface, look for hairline cracks from the rim, and check for pitting and plating — nickel-plated pans flake and are better as projects. Several sellers reuse identical titles, so compare the photos.

Common defects to inspect
Warp or spin; hairline rim cracks; nickel plating that flakes; pitting; numbers softened by blasting; size confusion (a No. 9 is larger than a No. 8 from any maker)
Note: Most listings ask about $95–150 delivered; restored pans run about $20 more than as-found.
How to identify a real Wagner Ware
Stylized Wagner Ware Sidney -O- logo on the bottom with a four-digit catalog number (1058 on the No. 8 skillet, 1059 on the No. 9) and a mold letter; earlier pans show a plain WAGNER or Wagner Ware mark with SIDNEY O. and a size number. Later pieces read Wagner Ware with MADE IN USA. Magnalite pieces are aluminum, not iron.
Buying guide
Which one to buy
From Oct 1, 2026 listings
12 genuine Wagner Ware No. 9 skillets (pattern 1059) were listed at the late-September check, and two have since sold: the nickel-plated pan with the lowest total and a $150 heat-ring pan. Most ask about $95–150 delivered. Heat-ring versions are the earlier castings and usually sit at the top of the range, though two are under $100 today; smooth-bottom ones cook the same. Look for a clear 9 and 1059 under the stylized Sidney -O- logo, and ask whether it sits flat without spinning. Listings titled 9-inch are No. 6s; a No. 9 is about 11¼ inches. Two listings from different sellers share an identical title, so compare their photos. Cooks: the restored 9D; collectors: a heat-ring 1059.
