Unusual DO

I'm always striving to learn more/different things regarding vintage cast iron.
This may be something I'm suppose to know but my research has turned up empty at this point.
Attached is a link from eBay that list a WW D.O. Made in USA but has a Patent Date of 1920. Doug usually has an answer for most everything but anyone is welcome to chime in.
Is this a real piece or what? Thanks in advance.

That's from after Wagner acquired Griswold. Tite Top is a Griswold trademark, and that 1920 patent is a Griswold patent. Made in the USA makes it post 1960. A cool piece, but not very old or valuable in the big scheme of things. Certainly nowhere near that asking price.
 
Thanks everyone...I thought that was the case but didn't want to make a fool of myself....been there and done that. Yes...the price is ridiculous but that's mostly what one will find on those type sites.
 
The lid on that Camp Oven sure looks a lot like the lid that fits my #10 Griswold CO like a glove. I thought it was an unmarked Griswold but now I think maybe it's one of these.
