Cornbread Wedge Pan

I found a 8 piece cornbread wedge pan today, on the back it says "corn bread skillet" and I can't remember if it said made in USA or pat pending. Ridge on backside of handle meets the pan side and hole in center is closed. Everything tells me BSR. my question is, through my research on the Modemac site, it looks like When lodge acquired the BSR patterns they took it over, so did Lodge produce pans that looked identical to the BSR? Or did they not use the BSR pattern once acquired? I'm trying to figure out if that pan was a earlier BSR, or could possibly be a later lodge, but before Lodge added the assist handle. Also asking price was $20 and I can get 10% off, is it worth $18? Excellent almost unused shape
 
Lodge made their own copy of a wedge cornbread skillet, so using BSR's seems unlikely, even if they did later acquire the pattern. The one currently sold by Lodge looks nothing like BSR's or even the original Lodge for that matter, and my guess is the other site is perhaps mistaken about the subject. Photos would really make answering questions such as this much easier.
 
I didn't think to take a picture, but it did have the ridged backside of the handle and it looks exactly like the BSR pics on the modemac site, I searched the web for older Lodge pics and it looks like the backside of theirs didn't have the writing "corn bread skillet". I may go back and take another look if it's worth the $18?
 
I read somewhere,I don't remember where what lodge skillets have a hole in the center,and Bsr doesn't have a hole,Is this correct?
 
It's a BSR and $18 is an OK price from what I've seen.

I purchased one for around that a few years ago. I also got lucky and found one at a garage sale for .50
 
I ran into an early Lodge copy of the BSR cornbread pan yesterday. on the reverse it just had a #8 in Lodge script no other markings. I have the BSR version which I like better as it does not have the hole in the middle.
