It has been many years since I last saw one of these trucks Jim. Nicely captured ~ Regards Melbob

K2, Of course you're correct, it is a Diamond T logo. It is on a 1949 Diamond T one ton pickup. I've have had it for 37 years. It was my first pickup and it is still serviceable today. They were built to last and came new with a 100,000 mile warranty. A couple of more pictures of it in use at: http://www.pbase.com/jimthode/copied_negatives Thanks, Jim

Got a hit on first search - for "T logo diamond". What an exquisite piece! It's the "Diamond T" truck logo: http://www.cartype.com/page.cfm?id=2756&alph=all&dec=all -k2

Is is a Thode mobile?? grin I like the different textures of the metals. You've shot this so well it's almost 3-D. ~Lydia

Hmmm, with the date of 1949 I was going to say this logo belongs to a Tucker automobile but a Google search left me high and dry. I've got to think about this some more.
