Hi, I'm new to this forum! When I was little I always had a fascination with school buses, especially Carpenter ones. I remember the oldest bus in my school's fleet was a Carpenter, bus 24, built in 1989. I could never figure out what the logo was supposed to be. I know now that it was a knight inside a C and have been looking for a clear picture of it online for a long time but as of yet have not found one. Does anyone know where I can find a clear picture of the old Carpenter bus knight-in-the-C logo? Thanks!

Thank you! No wonder I couldn't tell what it was or how it was supposed to resemble a knight - I thought it was supposed to be a whole knight standing in the C holding a lance, not just a waist-up drawing. I could have sworn I'd seen that incarnation before, but I must have remembered wrong, haha. Thanks!

There were a few incarnations of the Carpenter logo over the years. Google image search for "Carpenter Body Works Logo"...there were some neat ones!
