American Pottery was founded by Evan K. Shaw who was a former Vernon Kilns employee.  During the period of 1943 through 1955, Evan K. Shaw created the largest ceramics outfit in the Los Angeles area under many different Company names and Disney Licenses including Metlox and The American Pottery Company.  Evan K. Shaw's American Pottery signed its first contract with Disney on February 4, 1943.  Shaw/American Pottery figures are known for their details, expressions and quality.  Shaw/American Pottery had their own Mold Makers.  The Disney Studios would provide model sheets to be followed for each design.  Once Shaw/American Pottery came up with a new concept, it would have to be approved by the Disney Studio artists and the Disney licensing division before any production could begin.
