Former Nazi designer sues VW over logo

A former Nazi graphic designer is suing Volkswagen, seeking credit for helping to design their famous logo. Nikolai Borg, 86, who now lives in Austria, says he has paperwork that can prove his involvement in the development of the VW logo 65 years ago. He doesn’t want any cash, says his lawyer—he just wants to live to see his work acknowledged. Volkswagen denies that Borg was involved in the design. The legal case begins next week in a Vienna court. [Link]

    maybe the guy is dying and realized no one will remember him so he wants to leave his mark.. thats why he isnt asking for money cuz he doesnt have the time to use the money.
