Before the Nazis tainted the symbol forevermore...
A 1913 Krit, from one of the host of (mostly) ephemeral automobile manufacturers that sprang up in the US before World War I. Their logo was (yes!) a swastika, which was then just a Native American sun sign and good-luck symbol. Obviously this was long before the symbol was ruined forever by the Nazis. The inset shows the interpretive sign on the display.
This car is displayed at the National Automobile Museum in Reno, Nevada, which is based on the late William ("Bill") Harrah's private collection. Harrah was one of the early casino magnates in the Reno area, and thru a fortunate set of circumstances most of his collection was preserved as a public resource. The museum is well worth a visit if you're ever in the Reno area and looking for Something Completely Different: www.automuseum.org
One of the nice things about the automobile museum, in contrast to many museums, is that you can take as many pictures as you want. I'll post more along, but they won't generally have quite the same "doubletake" factor as this one!
