Art Pottery Cat Planter

Any idea of origin/maker?
Thanks

 

Midwest Potteries, Incorporated (one of the Morton potteries).

That's a cute little planter!

 

Thanks. Did you see it in a book or other source or you recognized it by its features?

 

Both. I recognized it first by its colors. That color combo is usually a dead giveaway and Morton is very rarely marked. To confirm I went to my Morton book. I didn't find that exact mold but there was a "calico cat" mold that was very similar and with a similar type of decoration. There's an outside chance it's not Midwest Potteries but I'd bet almost anything it's one of the Morton factories.
