    Other than the giant swastika, does it bother anyone else that the kerning is uneven? The B is farther away from the M than the M is from the W.

      Now that you mentioned it, it does bother me, but it might have been on purpose.

      BMW stands for Benelli (?) Motor Werk(s), so essentially it’s:

      (Location) -space- (Factory Type)

      At least that’s my assumption for it, because otherwise, it being Nazi Germany, if that was a typographical error, the person stamping those would probably be shot
