Vintage Pyrex Catalogs & Brochures
For the Pyrex collector interested in more in-depth research, vintage Pyrex catalogs, price lists, brochures, and other dated publications contain identifying information beyond that of print advertising. From them, collectors can verify years of introduction, product lifespans and changes, and other items like model numbers, catalog numbers, and original accessories.
The Rakow Research Library in Corning, NY, is situated just next door to the Corning Museum of Glass. The library's mission is to collect and preserve as much material about the subject of glass as possible. Large parts of its resources in the physical archives are available and freely accessible to visitors. The average Pyrex collector may not be able to travel to Corning, but many of those resources have been digitized and are available for viewing online. To save visitors to this website time, the digital archive has been searched to find most of the publications of interest to Pyrex collectors.
Listed herein are a selection of catalogs and related printed material spanning the era of vintage Pyrex kitchenware, linked directly from the Rakow digital archive. All are in Adobe Acrobat .pdf format.
