It is unusual that they would show that image in a modern JW video. They normally want to hide that part of their history.
"nothing to say!! this is so beautiful!,, thanks"
Someone made the above comment. JW's are so nuts. The video is of a printing factory and a few old books, there is not much "beautiful" about it.

For those wanting an actual answer to this question, that image was the symbol on the cover of the Watchtower for many many years. It is also on Russell's gravestone, IIRC. It wasn't until J.F. Rutherford's campaign to anti-Christianize the Bible Students movement (complete with a new non-Christian name: Jehovah's Witnesses) that the cross became a "pagan" symbol. Prior to that time (1940s maybe? Someone will have an exact date, I'm sure.) the cross was perfectly fine. Christmas. Birthdays. Pretty much all normal stuff was acceptable to the pre-Rutherford Bible Students group.

Yes Mad Sweeney and thank you for the details. But I also was wondering why they wouldn't get rid of it now.

Very odd that they would show that old pagan logo. Undercover apostate?
