Here we have something for anoraks to talk about with their mates down at the local pub: The origins of Ferrari’s prancing horse logo. It all apparently started with the horse emblem an Italian fighter pilot used to paint on his plane in World War I. Enzo then picks it up, and garnish it with Modena colors, and there you have it. This is how one of the coolest logos in the automobile world has been created.

The video after the jump gives you more details.
