What logos sport crowns?

Besides Husqvarna and Hallmark, I'm wondering what other logos out there currently sport crowns? I googled, but came up with random results for folks selling tiaras.

Levis has an inverted crown, don't know if that counts. And Levis is an anagram for Elvis. I know I've seen a few more real crown logos, I'll try to track them down for you.

Crown Theaters. Also, RC Cola, though they haven't used a crown logo for a while.

There's QFC, which is a chain of supermarkets. And I'm pretty sure the thing on the Best Western hotel chain's logo is a crown.

I am working on an identity for a company currently seeking angel funding... and need to see how other companies handle crowns — a probable part of this company's identity going forward.

Crown Audio, Iron Crown Enterprises, the city of Charlotte, NC, Crown Cabinets, the L.A. Kings, the Sacramento Kings (well, kinda), Best Western (albeit stylized -- their old logo was much more crown-like), Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, Crown Mortgage Company, et cetera, et cetera...

Thanks everyone ... JNCO is the kind of treatment I was looking for (thanks Kindall!), and azul's brilliant Google Image Search was most helpful — I never use the image search, so it never occured to me!
