Black cats are as much a part of Halloween as ghosts, goblins, and Linnea Quigley, and yesterday I added another one to my collection of midcentury ceramics. Just a little over 5 1/2 inches tall, this hand painted 50's feline from Japan, known as a Shafford Black Cat, was originally some type of oil or vinegar decanter, just remove the cute lil head and check out the cool cork inside the neck. Mine is painted with quite the sour puss expression on her face compared to others I've seen online, and speaking of, man oh man, --what a wild variety of black cats these Shaffordians produced! Figurines, mugs, ashtrays, utensils, tea pots, etc... dig into Google for more!
