What logo does have parts (if not the whole thing) that refer into the past?

Example: Warner Bros' logo looks like a shield which makes me think about medieval times.

HMV for obvious reasons.
Both BMW and Alfa Romeo have logos that originate in heraldry.
Cisco - the golden gate bridge was built in the 1930s
Disney - a castle
Starbucks - a mythical figure
BMW isn't heraldry, though? It's a stylized aircraft propeller, because they first made airplane engines. Am I wrong?
The alternating blue and white are derived from the arms of the free state of Bavaria. The exact pattern is adapted partly because it was illegal to use it directly but ultimately from there. More details on the Wikipedia page, as always. The propellers idea only came about as a result of an ad campaign later.
Very cool, thank you!
