Description: The IoW Festival was a British counterculture music festival which took place annually in England from 1968 to 1970. The 1970 event was by far the largest of these early festivals and the unexpectedly high attendance levels led, in 1971, to Parliament adding a County Council Act preventing overnight open-air gatherings of more than 5,000 people without a special license from the council.
Description: This incredibly simple design was made famous when a young British rock singer wore a one-off handmade version of it for a solo photo shoot back in 1972. He was able to take an otherwise boring text-based design on a green t-shirt and give it an instant cool factor that was quickly replicated by fans around the world after the pics showed up in various magazines.
