Who made frying pans?

While digging around in old stuff in my garage I came across this interesting frying pan (my folks would have said skillet).  It was different, kinda pale and not heavy at all.  But most interesting was the still-attached ticket saying "Home made for Dewey Wright."  I remember Dewey.  He passed away in January 2005 and he may have been a camping type.

But who, in Searcy Arkansas, would have been able to make him a frying pan?  If any of our Searcy Sleuths can remember, share it with us.  And if there is a relative of his who might know, give us a "holler" and let us know.

It is incidents like that one which often have me wishing I could bring back dearly departed folks to answer questions like that one, Barbara.

So do I, Myrl.  My hubby would have remembered but he passed away.  That is why I was rummaging around in his old hunting stuff.

How interesting! Since you said this was somewhat lightweight, I was curious as to whether it was made from iron or something else. I hope you find out who made it!
