Klaus-Michael Schneider, 26 Nov 2007

I am afraid this is not borne out by the picture: the oars might well be present in the club’s flag but do not appear here. Rather we are shown a former Bayer brand (Leverkusen, named after chemist Carl Leverkus, was the definite seat of the world famous Bayer chemical factory). See this page dedicated to those symbols (in English): “To illustrate the company's globally successful business operations, the next modification followed in 1895: a lion with wings(my emphasis, jm) and the symbolic staff of Mercury rose up over the globe. But foreign customers could make no sense of the image. Furthermore, the company's proper name - "Farbenfabriken vorm. Friedr. Bayer & Co." - was unpronounceable for them. This was partly the reason why a second corporate emblem was added in 1904: the Bayer Cross. This logo was not only legible in every language of the world, but was also recognizable to everyone due to its striking graphic design.”
