Default Ignition Switch Wiring - what on earth?!

1941 Ford Super Deluxe

When I bought this car, almost a year ago, I noticed the ignition wiring was a little peculiar, but I assumed there was a reason. Now it has got me wondering - why is the ignition switch wired like this? It appears my coil/resistor is hooked up directly to the battery. Any clue as to why? I've been having coil overheating problems and I'm wondering if this is the issue.
