I think this is a fairly common one, but I can't find the right font to duplicate this upper case 'C'. Any suggestions?

Hi Janet;
Here's a quick drawing that may help-tweak it a little if you wish as it's a vector.
Best regards;

The font is similar to Oak Wood, but that is still not the right one.

A lot of logos used stylized fonts, so even if there is one that is close it may have been modified by the artist.

In cases where you only need a single letter it is usually faster to recreate it. Use the best bitmap you have and trace over it.

Here's a tutorial if you need some suggestions of how to start.

If you can find an uppercase "C" that is anywhere close, then type it, convert to curves, place it over the bitmap and size it to match, then drag nodes as needed to duplicate the original. Otherwise, you need to use the method in the link and make it completely from scratch.
