Pyrex Hunting Today

[Doug D.]

Today's road trip:

I actually bought two Floral Bubbles, one for what I thought was an OK price, then found the other for nearly half that.

Blue Dot!

[Bonnie Scott]

OMG you found the fetus bowl. That is so cool. I have never seen one in real life. It is a pretty color. That blue dot hits the spot!

[Doug D.]

Bit the bullet and paid the "firm" price on the Dot, but it's about the same condition-wise as the orange, maybe a bit better. The Pink Daisy from the same booth was 15% off. The Hidden Baby has a pretty good scratch on one side at the bottom, but it was cheap enough to take anyway.

[Bonnie Scott]

The green dot must be hard to come by. This one on ebay is up to 63$ not counting the shipping cost and I would not call the condition very good.

I am going to have to keep my eyes open for one of the Pyrex quilted cozy's that came with that flowered casserole. That is new to me also. I always do a quick check for vintage linens while thrifting so maybe I will find one.

There was also a Horizon Blue #500 set at one place for $65. The 502 was scratched up, wrong lid, wasn't sure it wasn't just a regular blue 502 anyway; and I already had the 503. Wasn't paying that much to get two blue 501s. No luck yet on a HB 402.

That green Dot doesn't look all that bad, except for the price. Never mind, I just looked at all the photos. Actually, I had seen that one before. Pass.

[Doug D.]

These are so cool. Not a scratch.

Little Joe backstamp.

[Bonnie Scott]

Those are cool. Is that a green stripe? How old do you think they are? I see that Corning continued to use the Gaffer stamp after buying out MacBeth-Evans but I am not sure how long they used it. I thought that was an indication that the dish was very old but now I am not sure. I also must say the dividers remind me of a colonial skillet.

[Doug D.]

Yes, double green stripe, to match the bowls and coffee cups. I need 4 saucers.

[Doug D.]

Today's pick. Can you use your knowledge of Pyrex patterns or the resources on the website to deduce what size bowl this is without a visual frame of reference?

[Bonnie Scott]

No and I even tried cheating.
