Gris No. 6 Vienna roll pan. Forgive the color; it had more surface rust than I wanted to deal with so I am going to have to rebuild my electrolysis tank to finish the clean up. Right now just has a layer of wet Pam on it to minimize further corrosion till I am ready.

My inclination is that it is real, but there are somethings that are odd about it. The "6" is very poorly done, and is more of a knob than a number. Some of the notches (see 3rd pic) are very poorly cast. On the other hand, the iron is very thin and "Griswoldy". The cups themselves are well finished, and the edge scalloping around the perimeter of the piece is very finely done. My guess is it was an early pan of this type and all of the production kinks had not been worked out yet. Any thoughts?
