Primary Resources, a blog of Metro’s Dorothy Peyton Gray Transportation Library and Archive, has posted some images of vehicles, including this “King Tut bus,” decorated for the U.S. tour of “The Treasures of King Tutankhamun” exhibit, which was on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art for four months starting in February 1978.
