About our "Witch" Trade-Mark

Carpenter & Paterson’s black witch logo has been in continuous use worldwide since the company began in 1908. It has no particular significance other than it is associated with the city of Salem, Massachusetts, located just north of Boston, which became famous for the Witch Trials of 1692. It has been told that one of the founders of Carpenter & Paterson was trying to come up with a logo for the company as he was passing through Salem. The Salem "Witch" caught his eye as a unique logo that could be associated with Carpenter & Paterson.
