Hanno - would you say above logo was still in use in 1939/40? I also note that their address had changed apparently between 1940 and 1944.

The source (now added to the post) writes: "A report in 1931, observed, regarding the trademark shown in Figure 5, that “[t]he General Motors Near East mark contains quite a good idea. In the foreground is a motor truck. Behind, are two oxen ploughing, and in the background, the God Ra himself” (Palestine Bulletin 1931)."

I reckon the 1930s logo was still in use by 1939/1940.
