The Wagner 1910 Waffle Iron toy is one of the pieces that has been counterfeited to excess. These pieces have been showing up on e-bay for a number of years and at flea markets as well as antique shows, and antique shops. They show no sign of slowing down, as people continue to buy them. I have seen these pieces selling anywhere from $10.00 up to as high as $150.00. The most recognizable way to tell the counterfeit from the original is the length of the handles and the way that the bail ends after going through the ears of the base. On the original the handles are longer and have a brass collar on the paddle side and groves on the handle. The bail goes through the ears and then wraps back up to itself.
