Bristol blitz Mardons No.9 Factory in ruins.

Memories of Mardons by a former worker.

The year 1922 saw further expansion, No.2 Factory being built for producing cartons and folding boxes on a large scale on a site adjoining St. Anne's Board Mill (an Imperial subsidiary company), allowing the smooth flow of material to machine. The same year Richard Dalton died (remembered as the man who obtained the first order for cardboard boxes from Wills in 1883) and Ernest Mardon became chairman in stead. During Ernest's term of office, two more factories were built at Temple Gate, Nos 12 and 15, while in Redcliffe Street a classical style building in Bristol Byzantine architecture became the new premises for Mardon's Evening Club in 1931, proving a real godsend when used for other purposes after the war.

In the 1920's a change in packaging styles saw rigid and folding boxes introduced, and once again Mardon's had the first machine in the city to manufacture distinctive domed lid boxes for cigarettes which were known as Laube boxes. This new box plant was introduced by Ernest Mardon's son-in- law, Captain G.L. Stratton, who was a dynamic character with great drive and enthusiasm. Quite often an artist would prefer to use an actual object for his sketch, and for the series 'Animals of the Countryside' Charles Fry (who specialised in natural history subjects) managed to get two dead adders, which were kept in a box at the side of his bench. When finished with, the snakes were given to one of the department juniors for disposal.

He was either up to his tricks or completely nonplussed, for the following night an item appeared in the evening paper headed 'Venomous Snakes found in Victoria Street', followed by Mystery surrounds, etc...'. A few days later it transpired that the lad had parked the shoe-box containing the snakes on the roof of a car outside the factory! Another story is the old street musician who always stood outside the main entrance to the Caxton Works at the end of the day (and on pay day!), holding a gramophone whose clockwork motor had seen better days! Undeterred, the busker, F. Tarrs, would revolve the record on the turntable with the forefinger of his right hand, the gramophone emitting an horrific whining tune.
