Any Idea Of Maker of This Pottery Planter

Can anyone help with this. I can't find anything similar. The silver sticker says 'Hand Decorated, Pryde & Joy, Los Angeles Calif' Not sure if that is the maker. The stickers are on the fronts of the piece. Not sure if they were on the bottom at one time or not. They were on there when we got them. Wondering if they are from the 50', 60's, 70's?
Thanks for any help.

 

The only information I could find was that Pryde and Joy was part of Brad Keeler's pottery.

You'll have to do more digging into Brad Keeler. He is a name listed in the California Pottery books, but I haven't done much research on his work.

 

Thank You! I was finding links to California Pottery but was seeing a lot of other pottery companies and links associated it, I wasn't sure if I was heading in the right direction or what. I'll dig some more. Thanks.

 

According to his grand daughter, the Pryde & Joy line was his.

However, in the short time I searched that page, I couldn't find that name. Bt you could probably contact her.

Here are some of Brad Keeler's works - he did some lovely birds.

Thanks for replying. I have actually just sent her a message through the contact on the Brad Keeler site. After my last post I started searching Google and came across his site. I did see she does mention the Pryde and Joy line briefly on the about page. I'm wondering if the Pryde and Joy line was part of a 'Nursery' themed line from him.

I'll see if I get a response.

Thanks.

 

I also, came across a link that shows a similar cat planter from ebay, from two years ago though.

Thanks for the post I just picked up the dog at a thrift store and was wondering the origin as well. It certainly does look old
