Day 10: Modern Ceramic Products

Photo Caption: Day 10: Today’s piece is actually 3 pieces all made by Modern Ceramic Products (known to collectors, and usually marked MCP) under licence from Disney some time after 1947. The character is Figaro who as well as staring in various short films is Minnie Mouse’s cat! Except for some of the larger pieces they weren’t marked except for a blue foil label with the characters name on it which would have been the first thing to go when you got it home. Subsequently pieces with their original labels on are hard to find. Although many of the figures were locally designed this piece is a direct copy of the figure produced by Evan K Shaw in the USA around the same time.
