My MIL collected them from gargage sales for many years. She didn't
find one every year but across decades she gathered a sizable set. When
she died they all got shipped to other family. My wife isn't as extreme
as I am about wanting every kitchen item without exception to go in the
dishwasher but she does agree with me that all non-cast-iron cookware
should go in the machine.
