I sin "Irisches Tagebuch" skrev den framtida tyske Nobelpristagaren (litteratur, 1972) Heinrich Böll om när han på 1950-talet bodde ett år på Irland, och då han en gång på besök i Dublin..
"I was almost run over by a bright-red panel truck whose sole decoration was a big swastika. Had someone sold Völkischer Beobachter delivery trucks here, or did the Völkischer Beobachter still have a branch office here? This one looked exactly like those I remembered; but the driver crossed himself as he smilingly signalled to me to proceed, and on closer inspection I saw what had happened. It was simply the "Swastika Laundry," which had painted the year of its founding, 1912, clearly beneath the swastika; but the mere possibility that it might have been one of those others was enough to take my breath away."
Wikipedia (om The Svastika laundry): "They used electric vans, that were painted in red with a black swastika on a white background". -Detta påståendet refererar till Ask About Ireland Website. På bilden ser vi att det är fel, visst är bilarna röda men svastikan är vit på en svart bakgrund. HA! sign, Herr Petimeter.
