	An Introduction Cato Crane and Company, the Auctioneers, was founded in 1985 by John Crane, although the company has its origins in the 19th century Liverpool shipbuilding firm of 'Cato Miller and Co' and 'Edwin Bathurst's Benthall and Broseley Potteries' in Shropshire.
... and the Auctioneer's View .... A Reputation Cato Crane and Company has a reputation for providing an efficient nation-wide valuation and auction service to institutions such as banks and building societies, the legal profession and executors of estates together with the regional and national charities, church diocese and the private vendor.
