Before the Nazi Party adopted the swastika, it was a good luck symbol. It would crop up all over the place - including at Danish brewery group Carlsberg. And that's why it's painted on the side of this 1935 2-ton Morris dray. Although the company wisely dropped it from their trucks and bottles in the late 1930s, apparently you'll still find a couple carved into huge granite elephants at the brewery entrance today.
I actually put this photo up on the Truck & Van blog last year - but since my mum and girlfriend were the only two people who ever looked at that blog I reckon it's OK to publish it again here on the BigLorryBlog!
