I have had really good luck finding Pyrex just about everywhere I have gone. That does not mean that I always find it in my price range. However, the junkin season has been good to me so far when it comes to my favorite thing to collect.
I promised on my last post that I would show you a special piece I kept for my collection. It is minty and I was thrilled to get it. This is a Space Saver Scroll design with lid and cradle from 1958.
I found this pink beauty at my local Catholic charity thrift store. It was not in the collectibles or vintage area! It was laying under a bunch of pots and pan lids. To say I was excited is an under statement. I love it and it looks wonderful in the center of my 1940s Hoosier.

Oh my gosh, what a find! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteGreat, beautiful find!
ReplyDeleteLove these kinds of stories....I love when I find something really special tucked away too
ReplyDeleteI am sure that I don't have to tell you just how well you scored! Have you ever looked online for this particular piece and seen how much it goes for even without the lid & cradle?
ReplyDeleteCongrats!

I know! Btw I can't wait to read more about Farm Chicks. Sounds like it was a blast. Thanks
DeleteGorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteOh I had a suspicion when I saw your other picture... I noticed a hint of pink space saver and I figured you must have scored this! It's gorgeous! And what a great find in the midst of pots and pans :)
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! I am so happy to have it in my collection:)
ReplyDeleteThat is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteYour lucky star had you covered when you found this dish. I do not recall ever seeing one just like it.
ReplyDeleteAmazing. This is the one I'm dreaming of right now...
ReplyDeleteWhat a super find. Doesn't it just make you think of all the meals it's had in it over the years. People had such class back then.
ReplyDeleteWell done!
