Quote:Posted by bigtwin
The swastika was used at least 5,000 years before Adolf Hitler designed the Nazi flag. The word swastika comes from the Sanskrit svastika, which means ?good fortune? or ?well-being." The motif (a hooked cross) appears to have first been used in Neolithic Eurasia, perhaps representing the movement of the sun through the sky. To this day it is a sacred symbol in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Odinism. It is a common sight on temples or houses in India or Indonesia. Swastikas also have an ancient history in Europe, appearing on artifacts from pre-Christian European cultures.



It is (or rather WAS) common in many Native American cultures from pre-European contact right up until the WWII when the NAZIs went and ruined it for everyone else in the world.

Ah, ok, that's a nice piece of local history in your collection. Any idea the value? I have old postal cards, from here in US, that have swastikas on them along with flowers and good wishes greetings. Sue

The fella on the middle picture looks like GD and the age is about right

Every morning when I get out of bed, I wait for it. The pain. When I wake up pain free, I figure I must be dead. Then, there it comes. The pain. And I know it's going to be another good day. I'll still be in it.

Except for some old guy trying to make me give him a shave every morning.

OK i found it in one of my boxes  and i didn't find it myself so i have no idea where it is  from,
It is  from 1906 -Carlsberg and the swastika have nothing to do with Germany Cool

That is a seriously nice find, mate! Well done.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.
