"...of coerce Greg N helped out a lot."

Coerced? He has a way of doing that. How do you think I ended up with that Hamilton?

I have been looking at my Centura. It is really rode hard, and that I may not be microwave friendly makes me think it is ready to be passed on to someone else... Will be posting pics soon...
 
Great pictures Greg, I love those Halloween plates. Can't wait to see that casserole dish! I'm sure we will be putting it to good use.
 
Corning is cool...

When my oldest brother got married in the early 80's he received two sets of Corning. I don't remember the pattern. What I do remember is my trying to be Macho with my limp wrists trying to carry both box sets into their new home. I did not know that one of the boxes had been opened and all of the contents of that box slid out and fell onto the concrete! What a horrific sound! The plates and such actually bounced it seemed several times! Not one of the dishes were chipped! I was so impressed!
Greg where in the world did you get the Corning Headquarter plates? What a cool find!
Also love your two dishwashers side by side in your kitchen! One is a Kitchenaid and one is a Maytag. Do you have a picture of them? I bet they look so great side by side!

Oooh, I've never seen the blue cereal bowls or the big coffee mugs. I'm going to have to keep my eyes peeled for them.

I really wish they had made glassware in the cornflower pattern.

Resurrecting an old thread here...I just unearthed some of my mom's white coupe Centura from the basement. I grew up with it for everyday. On the flat pieces, there appears to be a yellow discoloration on the bottom. If I didn't know better, it looks a bit like the coating on the Corning browning dish (I can't swear whether or not these pieces had been used in the microwave---by the time my mom got a microwave she had a set of Corelle in the cupboard for that purpose). We're entertaining today so I'm not going to investigate too much, but wondered if anyone knew anything.
