1936 Dodge D2 - Dodge Brothers Trade Mark

There was some conjecture about this symbol, especially the apparent Star of David in the centre. The obvious suggestion, that the Dodge Bros were Jewish is wrong. It is suggested on the Dodge Bros Club website that the use of that star in 1936 in the Jewish context was not general. What lies beneath it here is unknown, one suggestion is that it consists of the Greek letter Delta (for D) (one of them upside down) symbolising the close relationship between the two brothers.
