My parts car, a '69 Squareback Automatic had The Volkswagen script, and
under that there was a horizontal bar. The Automatic script was on the other
side of the the license.
Check this picture.  http://www.classicvw.org/rearview.jpg
On my '71 Fastback, the VW script is above the license, then the Automatic
script is right below this. There is nothing else. When I worked for the
dealers back in the '60's and '70's we installed some dealer logo's that
were installed just like the factory scripts. My '71 has one of these, but
it is in the lower right corner of the rear deck lid. Where this dealer
script went, was at the discretion of the the mechanic installing it.
