What company purchased Aurora Casket Co?

In 2012, Aurora casket company, which had been founded in 1890 by Colonel John Backman in Aurora (IN), and which had been controlled since then by the Backman and Barrott families, was sold to the New York based private equity firm Kohlberg & Company. In addition to the metal casket manufacturer Aurora, the company included two other firms: 1997 Aurora had acquired the urn and marker manufacturer Meierjohan-Wengler out of Cincinnati and in 2000 the hardwood manufacturer Clarksburg Casket Company of Clarksburg, West Virgina.

Where can a national seamless copper deposit casket be purchased?

These caskets are no longer made. They were originally made by National Casket Company but this company is no longer in business. The only ones left are found in funeral homes that have not sold them. Let me add the following information: Currently there is an ad of a copper deposit casket at http://www.nomispublications.com but it is doubtful if this is a model originally made by National. It does not look like that and the ad says "nickel plated copper deposit", which does not fit either. The closest equivalent which is currently available seems to be the "Marquis", a thermo-deposited bronze casket manufactured by the York / Matthews casket company.


When was Motown records relocated?

sold out to universal? why? envy and dilution. It was not sold directly to Universal. Motown Record changed hands several times after Berry Gordy sold it to MCA records, then Vivendi, then to Universal. It is not clear if the MCA sell to Vivendi was through acquistion or outright purchase. As with it becoming property of Universal Corporation. Berry Gordy still owns the significant publishing rights to the Jobete works that most recorded titles were published under. As well as dual-owned publishing branches.


What is an amber Britannia casket?

The term refers very probably to the casket in which the late President Kennedy was taken from Dallas to Washington. His "Handley" casket had been manufactured by the (former) Elgin Metal Casket Company of Elgin, (IL), which had provided the bronze casket of President Coolidge already. The "Handley" was a double lid sealer casket (without an inner glass panel) weighing more than 300 lbs empty. The exterior had what Elgin called a "Britannia finish" (meaning that the metal had been partially "brushed" or "scratched") with a transparent amber (dark reddish) tint. The interior consisted of an adjustable inner mattress and a white velvet and satin lining. The casket certainly would have been used for Kennedy's burial, had it not been damaged during the loading / unloading process by the Secret Service people who tore off the ornamental attachments of the swing bar handles. For that reason, it was replaced with a new casket (made of solid mahogany). The original Elgin casket eventually was dumped in the Atlantic ocean in 1966 by the Airforce in order to prevent it from becoming an object of morbid curiosity. The successor to the "Handley" model is still in production. A few years after President Kennedy's death, Elgin changed the flaring round corner design somewhat by giving it a more pronounced urn shape. After the Elgin company had been sold to the renown mattress producer Simmons in 1968, the "Handley" design was replaced by the "Winchester" model, which differed from its predecessor mainly by some embossings. The casket is still manufactured today by VerPlank Enterprises of Iron City (TN) and can be seen in the Online Catalog of the company.


Is there a difference between a half couch casket and a perfection half couch style casket?

Yes, there is, although both types of caskets have a split top. The divided lid has become the most characteristic feature of American style caskets. In a perfection cut half-couch design, the lid is simply cut into a head and a foot panel, each of which usually has more or less the same length. For viewing, the head panel is opened. The majority of caskets sold in the US today are of the modern perfection cut style. In the traditional, original or "true" half-couch casket, the foot panel has the same construction as a perfection cut casket, but the head panel differs from it because only the upper part of the lid (the "crown") is opened for viewing, while both the front part and the head end part of the "ogee" (the rim or frame of the lid) remain fastened with hinges to the base (or body) of the casket. These hinged parts of the ogee of the head panel, together with the textile lining attached to them, are also opened up during the viewing. This creates the impression of a wide bed with a pillow in it. With other words, the opened half of the traditional half-couch casket looks wider than the opened half of a perfection cut casket. A closed traditional half-couch casket can be differed from a perfection cut casket by the fact that in the former the line marking the split of the lid is slightly broken, while in a perfection cut casket it is unbroken. The original half-couch style has become rare. The main reason why it has been replaced by the perfection cut style seems to be the fact, that in metal caskets - which make up the majority of caskets in the US nowadays - only perfection cut models can be equipped with a gasket which gives them the protective property of a sealer casket.


How much does this casket cost?

Prices vary from country to country. In the United States, the cheapest wooden caskets (like cloth covered particle board coffins) start at prices around $ 500. Cardboard caskets are even cheaper. The most expensive wooden casket is currently (in 2014) Batesville's (Marsellus) "Masterpiece" solid African Mahogany casket with a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $ 38,000, but offered by Online casket retailers already at prices around $ 16,000 (plus 2,000 for an optional carved top). Metal casket prices start around $ 700 for unsealed 20 gauge steel caskets (Online casket retailers), sealed metal caskets being somewhat more expensive. Sheet copper and bronze caskets are available from § 2,000 (Online casket retailers). The most expensive casket on the market is currently a 1,100 lbs heavy cast bronze Pharaoh Sarcophagus manufactured by the York-Matthews Company, offered at a manufacturer's suggested list price of $ 270,000, but sold by discount casket retailers already at a "bargain" price of $ 160,000. The casket prices charged by funeral homes are often considerably higher than those of Online casket retailers.


Where can I get Ultima II foundation in aurora beige for under 100?

If someone could get Revlon to make a batch and sell it to them, they could make a fortune. Six jars just sold on eBay for $129 each. Lots of people still want it. I am now using Bye Bye Undereye in medium, and it gives pretty good coverage over my birthmark. But I miss my Aurora Beige!
