Pyrex Christmas Bowl - a photo on Flickriver

            The green Pyrex "Merry Christmas and Happy New Year" promotional bowl, #443. Pictured here doing its annual walnut duty. 

If anyone knows any of this bowl's details (such as when released, other pieces in this pattern, etc) please let me know. I'm aware of the 2.5 quart white casserole and the white mugs with this pattern.
.

* Our family Pyrex story begins in 1958 when our Mom received the 4-piece Pyrex Cinderella Butterprint mixing bowl set as a wedding shower gift. By the late sixties there was only one piece remaining - the largest bowl, the white on turquoise 4-quart #444 bowl. It would be the only piece of family Pyrex for the next 30 years or so.

* During the seventies, eighties and nineties the old bowl was primarily used by Mom to prepare and serve her famous mashed potatoes. We referred to the bowl as 'the mashed potato bowl'.

* In 1999 the old original 444 bowl became part of a complete set again. In the late nineties we began marveling at how long the old bowl had been around. I was already using eBay and thought it would be cute to get the three other bowls and have the complete set again.

* Since 2000 we've accumulated additional Butterprint; the 4-piece non-cinderella mixing bowls, several pieces of the Bake/Serve Casserole set; and the entire refrigerator set. I've gone outside the Butterprint pattern twice for promotional Cinderella bowls; the 1959 'Golden Scroll' Chip and Dip set, and the green Merry Christmas and Happy New Year #443 bowl.

* We don't really 'collect' Pyrex, we just sort of 'accumulate' it. We only acquire it to use it, and use it we do, including the one that started it all, that original #444 that's been in the family since 1958, and is still serving up Mom's famous mashed potatoes  - now to a fourth generation!!!
