That sucks. Old Harvey Crane wouldn't've allowed it. They coulda and shoulda weathered this recession, and come back as great as ever. This isn't okay.

Crane Cams has had bad luck and bad management issues going back about 10 years which put them in a horrible financial position well before the recession. Its' really a shame, they still made some great products, so it is certainly not the fault of the workers, who are now paying the price.

Crane closing its doors is old news. Crane being liquidated is current news.
