About The Rolling Stones

The Rolling Stones formed in London in 1962 and became one of rock’s longest-running bands. Their tongue-and-lips logo, introduced in 1971, is one of the most famous band logos. Concert posters were made to promote a single show, which is why so few originals survive. It was designed to promote a 1989 concert. 1980s music posters reflected MTV-era style, from new wave graphics to heavy metal illustration. Concert posters are often the only surviving record of a particular line-up on a particular night.
