Found these logos many years ago on my 53 "groom mobile". Unfortunately they were pretty beat and I didnt get any full on photos. Just a couple close ups.

^ Micki, Mecki, Macki and Mucki were a family of fictional hedgehogs, the mascots of the German magazine Hör Zu. They became very popular with German children after the Second World War.

The first "Mecki" puppet film was filmed in 1938.
The radio and television magazine "HörZu" (= listen) initially used the character illegally as its mascot, only later obtaining permission from the character's creator.
Mecki was also used in advertising after the war, promoting democracy and voting, among other things.

Well, enough of useless knowledge!

Have you considered simply starting with a nicer bus? I don't know what your skills are, but the race is easier if you can see the finish line. If you are not a runner, don't start off doing a marathon.
