It's not a cat, but this is the best place I know to ask obscure historical sailing questions :)

I guess that's an N and not a Z based on the direction of the seam? Which way is up? I tried rotating the image and sending it through Google's reverse image search but all it matched was hearts and valentines.
If it is rotated clockwise the N could stand for Netherlands and the background is a wooden shoe.

Nice Find Ron, turns out the logo was a shoe after all!
