What is a business story?
A business story is different from a brand or a 'message'. A story by definition calls for reference to journey, discovery and character - so it's the company journey, the company's personal passion and the particular 'world' the company offers those who work with you. A business story answers the question 'Who are you?'

What was the Crane and Breed casket company of Cincinnati renown for?
p { margin-bottom: 0.25cm; line-height: 120%; }a:link { } Crane & Breed (C & B) was the industry's first sheet metal casket producer and became renown for its many technical innovations, e.g. the "Everseal" mechanism providing a hermetical (air and water tight) seal for metal caskets. C & B rightly called itself the "House of Quality". C & B was also an innovator in designs: in 1965 for example, C & B created a very modernistic stainless steel casket in a natural brushed metal finish, In the years to follow, C & B advertised this casket with the slogan that its design was "often imitated but never duplicated". The roots of C & B go back to the middle of the 19th century when Martin Hale Crane and J. R. Barnes bought the casket part of the Anchor Iron Work in 1853. Along with the business, Crane, Barnes & Co. received the all-important license to manufacture the Fisk patent burial case, which was the first metallic coffin to achieve widespread acceptance and use in the US. As a result, the early history of Crane & Breed became closely connected to the New York inventor Dr. Almond Dunbar Fisk who in 1848 designed and patented "An air-tight coffin of cast or raised metal". It resembled an Egyptian sarcophagus with sculpted arms and a glass window for viewing the face of the deceased person. Meanwhile Abel Denison Breed had joined Crane, Barnes & Co and in 1854, a businessman named John Mills bought out the interests of J.R. Barnes and the firm was reorganized as Crane, Breed & Company, which continued to use the former Davis casket works. 1855 Martin H. Crane designed a new casket which modified Fisk's original design: the mummy shape was eliminated and the simplification of the ornamental parts allowed the casket could to be mass-produced. The fact that President Abraham Lincoln's original wooden casket later was exchanged for one of the new patented Crane cast iron coffins was evidence of the fact that it had supplanted the original Fisk as the finest coffin in the country. Since the mid 1860s, Martin H. Crane experimented with rolled sheet iron as a less-expensive alternative to cast iron, and by the end of the decade he had perfected the industry's first sheet metal casket. In 1882, Crane, Breed & Co. was reorganized as the Crane & Breed Manufacturing Company. In 1897, William J. Breed relocated the Crane & Breed works to a spacious new 4-story brick factory erected at 1227-59 West Eighth St., Cincinnati, OH (with the main office located at 1231 W Eighth St) where it remained until the closing of the company some time after 1973. In the early 20th century, C & B also began to manufacture vehicles, especially ambulances and hearses. In 1928 Howard Breed, the company's new president, reorganized the firm as the Crane & Breed Casket Company. From that point of time, C & B concentrated on the manufacture and distribution of caskets and other mortuary supplies. During the Second World War, C & B introduced caskets made out of a composite plastic called Eternalite as a reaction to the shortage of metal caskets. When pope John XXIII died in 1963, C & B barely missed the change to provide his casket. According to reports in a funeral trade magazine, the catholic bishops of the US had decided to present the Vatican an American top of the line casket for the burial of the late pope as a gift of the American catholics. Upon the initiative of the archbishop of Cincinnati, Crane and Breed obtained the order to supply the casket. As the company's top model was out of stock at that point of time, workers of C & B hand-crafted one in day and night shifts . Although the casket was finished in time to be flown to Rome, all the extra work proved to be in vain because archconservative circles of the Vatican insisted upon burying the pope in the traditional triple set of caskets which had been used for pope John's predecessors - an inner casket of cypress wood, a middle casket of lead and an outer walnut casket. This triple set of caskets eventually was place into a marble sarcophagus. The C & B casket intended for pope John was probably the top of the line product advertised in trae magazines: a double walled casket of 14ga (extra heavy) wrought bronze. It had a triple providing an air and water tight double seal. The outer bronze lid was divided as in a perfection half couch casket. The middle bronze lid was split, too. The innermost lid consisted of a full length oval plate glass panel covering the removable inner bronze casket. The weight of the empty casket was 700 lbs. The casket exterior was finished in golden natural bronze. The inside was lined with hand tufted velvet of supreme quality. The casket had cast bronze swing bar handles in Navy bronze finish.

Is the Belmont casket company of Columbus in Ohio still in business?
In the 20th century, Belmont was one of the big metal casket producers in the United States and soon gained a reputation of making caskets of high quality. It was best known as manufacturer of lead coated steel caskets; the environmental hazardous lead coating process provided the carbon steel with properties similar to that of stainless steel. The company, whose graphic logo showed a mounted knight carrying a lance, used to advertise the strength of its caskets to withstand the pressure of earth in graves (without burial vault or grave liner) by publishing pictures of one of the Belmont caskets with some 50 bags of cement on top. After the Second World War, Belmont also was renown for the unmatched quality of color advertisements in trade magazines: the casket pictures shown were so impressive that sometimes it was difficult for the real caskets to fully match their appearance in the pictures. Having provided the casket of President Wilson already - an elliptic steel casket covered with dark cloth - Belmont became most famous in the funeral profession when Marilyn Monroe was buried in the top of the line product of the company. Westwood Village Park Chapel had provided a silver finished solid bronze double lid "Masterpiece" hermetical glassless gasket sealer casket with a hand tufted champagne colored velvet interior (with some additional satin and silk lining) for the funeral of the movie star. The "Masterpiece" model used to be manufactured to custom order in a large variety of materials (steel, copper, bronze), various finishes (brushed, polish, painted), many different interior upholstering materials as well as many other design details (various forms of handles and types of lid, available sealed or unsealed, with or without inner glass panel, etc.). The "versatile sealer" design, for example, had a patented double lid which could be arranged in seven different ways. As bronze casket, the "Masterpiece" was made of extra strong and heavy unusual 15 gauge material (meaning that some parts of the casket were made of 14 ga (64 oz) sheets, other parts of 16 ga (48 oz) sheets. The double lid solid bronze "Masterpiece" cost twice as much as the solid mahogany luxury Marsellus 710 casket used for the burial of President Kennedy. Belmont had registered the "Masterpiece" trademark in 1957 - the same year in which another nationally renown funeral service supplier, the Practical Burial Footwear Company, came to Columbus, a city which is also the home address of one of the oldest funeral supply firm, the family owned and operated Clark grave vault company, founded in 1898. In 1973, Belmont provided the casket for President Lyndon Johnson: a silver gray heavily rounded corner design (probably the "Columbus" model) made of lead coated steel. It seems that also the famous FBI boss J. Edgar Hoover was buried in a lead coated Belmont casket (probably a "Masterpiece") in 1972. While the Belmont casket company of Columbus is gone, several of its designs including the famous "Masterpiece" are still in production after having been acquired by VerPlank Enterprises of Iron City, TN. The silver finished "Twin Seal Masterpiece" double lid bronze design, which underwent only a few minor changes since the time of Marilyn Monroe's funeral, can be admired in the Online catalog of that company. As to the history of the company, it should be added that Belmont had come to Columbus in 1916, where it moved into a four story building at 330 W. Spring Street, in the neighborhood of the State Penitentiary. In 1930, corpses from a fire in the penitentiary were stored temporarily in caskets inside the factory. The 175,000-square-foot building, which had been constructed in 1885, was completely redeveloped in recent times, but a few relics of the the old Belmont building with the inscription "Belmont casket company" are still visible today. Belmont also opened another factory building in Shadyside, Ohio to expand its production.
