Joseph Claude Shell, Sr. (September 7, 1918 – April 7, 2008) was an American oil producer and lobbyist who represented District 58 (West Los Angeles - the Wilshire area) in the California State Assembly from 1953-1963. During 1961-62 he was the Assembly Republican Minority Leader. The conservative Shell is best remembered for having unsuccessfully opposed the more moderate candidate, Richard Nixon, in the primary election for Governor of California held on June 5, 1962. Shell, however, contended that Nixon actually opposed him, for Shell had been committed to the governor's race for a year before Nixon's own entry. Shell is also remembered for his work in the early 1960s in locating additional water sources to sustain the growth of California in the future.
