RE: Does anybody know about it?

Mehdi -

I found this on Wikipedia:

"Mercedes-Benz is the brand name applied to the models of one of the premier 
automotive manufacturers in the world and, because of its tie to Karl Benz, 
it is also the name of the world's oldest continuously produced automobile 
line. In 1926 when the new company, Daimler-Benz was established through 
merger, a new logo also was created that would include a symbol for each and 
integrate the names of the two former companies. A three-pointed star had 
been designed by Gottlieb Daimler, to show the ability of his motors for 
land, air, and sea use. This star first appeared on a DMG model in 1909, so 
it was chosen for the new logo. However the brand name Daimler was 
compromised after the death of Daimler in 1900, and allowed to be used on 
other automobiles, so the name of its seminal Mercedes model was chosen for 
the DMG portion of the logo. The traditional laurel symbol of Karl Benz was 
added along with his name to complete the new logo. The logo with a plain 
ring, as seen today, was not used until 1937."
