Cool stuff. Can't say that I care for the swastika border though. Given the age of the brochure, I suppose we can let it slide.

The Original Meaning:

The word "swastika" comes from the Sanskrit svastika - "su" meaning "good," "asti" meaning "to be," and "ka" as a suffix.

Until the Nazis used this symbol, the swastika was used by many cultures throughout the past 3,000 years to represent life, sun, power, strength, and good luck. http://history1900s.about.com/cs/swa...ikahistory.htm
