I won't part with them. I use them a lot. The one thing I am going to put on ebay - I've had it for 50 years, time for someone else to enjoy it, is the Pyrex double boiler with the wooden handles, made during WWII when steel was reserved for the war effort.
The others belonged to my grandmother and I am keeping them.

This was given to me by an aunt. She never used it - was one of the many things she bought from the Jewel Tea man who called once a month in our area and, incidentally, a decade later, after my uncle Howard died, married my aunt. She sold her farm and they moved out here to Oceanside and she invited me down for a weekend and I came home with my station wagon stuffed full of stuff she had brought out here specifically to give to me, "knowing how much I loved cooking and baking and suchlike."
