Naww it's a just plain old cast iron frying pan, basically like what
Grandma used to have..

( actually, it IS one that Grandma used to have )

Anyways, this one has the "cross" logo on the bottom, in block letters
and so it's pre-40's, apparently

Well, apparently they weren't too imaginative in their naming system,
because my waffle iron is a #8, too! G

It, too, is as non-stick as teflon. Neat toy, actually. You place a
concentrator ring/base over the stove burner. Then the sandwich-style
irons fit into a ball socket on one side of the base. The handles fit
into a cradle on the opposite side.

You pre-heat both sides by heating one, then flipping the two irons over
as one in the ball socket. Then fill, and do the same maneuver halfway
through the cooking.

Yumm!
