Before there was Plastic there was Pyrex (Part 2)

This is piece number two in completing a four piece set.  I referenced the primary color refrigerator dishes in my previous blog titled "Before there was Plastic there was Pyrex".  This is a 1.5 Pt (502-B) refrigerator dish in blue.  I picked this up at a local antique store I had never been to.  It has been down the street from my gramma's house ever since I can remember.  My cousin and myself stopped in the other day.  I am considering going back for two pieces in a pattern I do not have.  


It appears the two pieces I have were manufactured at different times.  Over time there were variations in the clear lids on the sets.  My new piece features lines throughout the lid.  While the smaller dish features lines surrounding a "blank" area.  The lid on the smaller dish is likely the older of the two.
