Cool find. Long before it was used as a symbol of evil, the swastika was a symbol of good fortune. Its use dates back much further than WW2.

My search on it reveals that it's an Indian good luck pin, Indian as in India. To them the swastika is a sacred symbol just as it was to pre Christian European peoples...
