Datsun Pins and Buttons
Description: Datsun is an automobile brand owned by Nissan. Datsun's original production run began in 1931. From 1958 to 1986, only vehicles exported by Nissan were identified as Datsun. By 1986 Nissan had phased out the Datsun name, but re-launched it in June 2013 as the brand for low-cost vehicles manufactured for emerging markets. The "classic" Datsun logo, based on the Flag of Japan and Japan's nickname as the "Land of the Rising Sun". After the Nissan rebrand, the logo remained the same, with "Datsun" replaced by "Nissan".
Description: Datsun didn't make it's way to America until the late '50s, but by the time the 1973 oil crisis came around, they were well-positioned with their smaller, fuel-efficient line of vehicles. This design is based on the logo most Americans probably recall when thinking of Datsun as it's their most refined version which was in use from 1976 to 1986 before the nameplate was retired in favor of the Nissan brand.
