| Has anyone ever seen a Pyrex pie plate used as a promotional piece?? Cochrane's Retail Store must have given the plates away back in the day, that surely doesn't happen any more.... I have never seen anything like this, I found it in Sudbury, Ontario, wonder where the store might have been..... jillslittlebit |

Cool find!! I've never seen any promotional clear Pyrex pieces around here.
ReplyDeleteCochrane is a small town just west of Calgary out here in Alberta! I don't know if there is another one in Canada...OH! Here ya go: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cochrane,_Ontario

I've only seen these types of custom pie plates in my Pyrex Unofficial Collector's Guide book, the one in the book is also from Canada (so maybe this was a Canadian thing?)
ReplyDeleteIt lists the approximate worth as $30.
Nice find! I don't think I've seen a Pyrex one before.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the comments - I am in Ontario, there is a Cochrane in this province, but I'm wondering where this Cochrane's Retail Store might be..... could be anywhere...... It's a different piece, for sure!
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Sudbury, and there was a Cochrane's Hardware store right in the middle of downtown when I was a girl. Remember going there with my Dad.
ReplyDeleteI collect these! I just posted a picture of my collection on Instagram @charmingvintagestore Will you be selling this pie plate?
