c. 1960s; Carl Kroyer Crates - Mountainside, NJ
Heavy-duty animal control crate with stenciled "NYC DOG POUND" lettering and barred ventilation panels.
Manufactured by Kroyer Crates-known for their rugged shipping and military-grade enclosures-this utilitarian cage was likely used by a municipal animal control department for transport or temporary housing. Constructed from hardwood with a weathered factory finish, it features steel bar panels on two sides and the front door, providing airflow and visibility. A hinged front with dual latches and a security chain secures the compartment, while a reinforced top with riveted aluminum edging enhances durability. The original Kroyer Crates handle and steel nameplate remain intact. Scarred, scuffed, and saturated with history, this crate is a stark reminder of early urban animal control infrastructure-purpose-built and unmistakably institutional.
