Today I spotted a sad iron trivet at a thrift store, It had a Nazi swastika on it. That was really unexpected. I kinda stepped away from it, thinking no way. As I was driving home I thought, how could that trivet end up in a small town thrift store in rural Ohio? Pre war import? Post war German immigration? War trophy? I think with a lot of things, the story behind the piece can be more important than the piece. Not knowing the story and the stigma surrounding the symbol, I had to pass.
