famous logo was designed quite by accident, by a guy who worked at the local drum shop in Liverpool where Ringo ordered his first Ludwig kit. The Ludwig drums all had the Ludwig logo painted on the front kick drum head, and when Brian Epstein went to pick up Ringo's kit he said, "The band isn't called Ludwig, it's called the Beatles! We need the band's name on the head!" So the store clerk sketched out what became the famous Beatles logo, with the large "B" and the dropped "T". There was a local sign painter who used to paint all the drum heads for the shop, so when he came in the clerk gave him the sketch and he painted it on while everyone looked on.

Interesting question, I looked at some old photos, and no logo before Brian Epstein became manager - and the first drumset with a logo (1962) that I saw had script writing rather than the more familiar logo. This question will drive me crazy.

That was no logo.
That was a squashed beetle.
