Was there not quite a large American Bund on the go in those days ? Not that I believe that one shaving brush has too much signifigance. Just probably not one I'd want next to my own Vie Long.

The swastika has a long history and context before the Nazis got their genocidal hands on it. I've got a 2nd edition of Rudyard Kipling's Just So Stories with one embossed on the front.
But it is hard to see it as anything other than Hitler's symbol now.

There was. See here.
Btw.. I thought 'The Man in the High Castle' was an interesting thought experiment..

Most likely. The swastika's been around for several thousand years.
