Be sure to visit Suzanne from Colorado Lady for more VTT glory!
When I saw this in Etsy I couldn't help myself, I had to have it!
White and Turquoise a wining combination! And I was glad to discover pieces I had never seen before. Like the clear S&P with the turquoise top, the beverage server with it's rack, and the cradle for white round casserole at left (Frost Garland). I have no idea from which magazine it came from....and no year. However the Turquoise Snowflake was introduced in 1957 and the Frost Garland casserole was introduced in 1962, so my guess is winter 1962.
Let the hunt begin! I have some new pieces to find! Tally Ho!

cool! I'm now on the hunt for those S&P shakers, too :)
It is interesting what goes around comes around. I am surprised at how much interest and buying of Pyrex has become. I know what I have seen in antique stores, it is very expensive
Oooh, more turquoise Pyrex to add to my hunting adventures! I hope you frame that ad and put it up in your kitchen. It's lovely! :) Happy VTT!
Wow, that is a great ad. I love the turquoise Pyrex.
I just saw a pepper shaker that was shaped just like them. It had a pink top. I wish I had checked to see if it was marked!
I love those S & P shakers. Who will find them first? LOL....very cool ad!
What a fun ad to see. Love the torquoise blue!

very interesting advert.. I do remember my late grandma used to buy these turquoise pyrex for daily usage.. thanks for remembrance of yesteryear. happy VTT
let the hunt begin - good luck - hope you find your treasure ;-)
I love old advertisements, but its even more fun when it gives you something else to hunt for. Fun post!
I love the turquoise! Happy hunting!
Terrific ad! I remember those lovely coffee pot/servers!
I would like to find some Pyrex ads. I wish the sellers would say what magazines they are from.
Oh you DO have a penchant for Pyrex, don't you? I loved looked back at your old posts. You're the kind of person I'd like to go thrifting with! We'd be out for hours. Wait-I do that already... but company would be nice. All my pals want to bag it after an hour or so. I, on the other hand, could go all day. LOL
Thanks for visiting from Suzanne's. I need to get going tonight and see what everyone else is showing.

I'm in withdrawal - I didn't do a retro post this week! Not tuesday and not today.
I love love love this ad and I so need some new magazines and don't want to spend the money but man, I really need some new ones.
Sure wish I could find this ad!
Wow

I gosh, I just love vintage pyrex and the ads are so awesome!
Happy 4th,
Karen
I love old ads like this one! And I think someone else just posted showing some of the bowls!
Isn't that interesting? Thanks for sharing.
The ad is totally cool. I agree with another commenter you should frame it for display in your kitchen. The turquoise pyrex is lovely.
Love it, girl. It makes me want to make a casserole and entertain my friends with beautifully presented food.
How do you find this stuff?

P.S. I've got the "I Found Someone" video up on my blog. More eighties gold LOL.
Just back to look at that magical ad and sigh...
