Wagner Bailed Griddle

[DonCorrigal]

The attached pictures are a Wagner 14 - Sydney 0 flat iron that I am trying to get some provenance on. It has been in my family since I think the late 1950's. My father found it at the garbage dump & reconditioned it. My mother used it for decades for bacon/eggs & pancakes, etc. I sort of inherited it in the early 1970's & used it for camping, cooking over an open fire. It has been sitting in storage for a long time. over the last few years I have pulled it out, reconditioned & seasoned it. It is my preferred way of cooking steak. Perfect every time!!

At this point I would like to see if I can date it, & appraise it.

Any thought or suggestions.

Thanks for the help.

Wagner pieces with that configuration of the trademark fall generally in the 1910s. Appraisals don't really fall within the purview of this forum. Searching eBay "sold" listings for the same or similar, disregarding the lowest and highest prices, can give a reasonable estimation.
