CRATEMAKER UNION REVEALS TROUBLESOME PAST: MADE CRATES FOR FAMOUS CRIMINALS
By: Jane Smith, Documentary Filmmaker
The Cratemaker Union 0023, once a formidable force in the crate industry, has come forward with shocking revelations about its notorious past. The union, which represented workers in the crate manufacturing industry, has admitted to crafting crates for some of the world's most infamous criminals.
One of the union's former members, who wished to remain anonymous, spoke to us about their work during the 1960s and 70s. "We made crates for everyone," they said, "from the Kray twins to the Great Train Robbers. You name it, we made it. We even made a few custom-made crates for the notorious gangster Al Capone."
The union member went on to describe the process of making the crates. "We had to be very precise with our measurements," they said. "The crates had to be a certain size and weight to fit onto the transport vehicles without drawing any attention. And they had to be sturdy enough to withstand the long journey without breaking."
The union member also revealed that they would often add special features to the crates to make them more comfortable for their infamous clients. "We would add extra padding to the inside of the crates so they were more comfortable to sit in," they said. "We even added little air holes so the criminals could breathe during transport."
It is not known how much the union charged for their services, but the anonymous source suggested that it was a lucrative business. "Let's just say that we never had to worry about money," they said with a grin.
Cratemaker Union 0023 eventually went dark in the late 1980s. However, their legacy lives on, and their association with some of the most infamous criminals in history will forever be a part of their history.
The union member we spoke to concluded by saying, "Looking back, we probably should have thought twice about making crates for these criminals. But at the time, it was just a job, and we were happy to have the work."
This shocking revelation has shed new light on the Cratemaker Union's past and will no doubt be of great interest to those who study the criminal underworld.
