Answer: The Rolling Stone logo. John John Pasche was a 25 year old student at London’s Royal College of Art when he asked by the Stones management to design a poster for the band’s European tour. Apparently, Mick Jagger turned up at John Pasche’s final degree show where the poster was on display. Soon after, Mick Jagger asked him to design a logo for The Rolling Stones record label and showed him an image of the Hindu Goddess Kali, which was his starting point. The work was done in about two weeks and he was just paid £50 for the task. Two years later, he was paid another £200 as a recognition from the band to its success. The copyright of the logo was lately bought by the band, but Pasche still owned the original artwork, which is currently on sale for £300,000 at the artist’s web site.
