This is the airmail envelope which was used to send the letter and instructions regarding the odd ball Zenith watch in my recent post. I thought it would be interesting to post a photo of it because it tells a little bit about Zenith in 1970. They seem to be marketing their deck chronometers.

It's not that vintage....just postmarked September 15, 1970. The other side has a stamp for the receipt in the US which looks like September 18.

 

..... and Chrysler.

 

That "NATO Star", for those not used to it, was actually conceived as two stylized 'Z's crossed together. It succeeded the Z-in Star logo, and was replaced by the hard-to -describe square-with-internal-star-sort-of logo, since replaced by the plain 5-pointed star (like on the flag the Titanic flew, and the Dallas Cowboys).

 

The best of all of the logos in my humble opinion...crossed Zs.

 

It's the bad-ass ninja-star aspect that does it for me.
