interesting graphic...
Did you see “The History Detectives” (on PBS) track down the origins of
a VERY old Harley-Davidson? The motorcycle had a “Cross of Lorraine”
symbol and given the vintage, the owner thought it might have been used
by the French during WWII.
Of course, that left the question of how it got back to the USA!
Turned out it was one of number of motorcycles that H-D gave to the
anti-tuberculosis workers in Wisconsin. They were used by tuberculosis
educators that were virtually “circuit-riders”.
And yes, the symbol of the anti-tuberculosis organization was
“The Cross of Lorraine”, as seen on the lower corners of your posted graphic.
