I googled 'origin of peace sign' in an attempt to find my friend Gabrielle Rice. We were students in the Department of Fine Art at the University of Reading, UK in 1958. The students in the Art Dept. were approched by the CND (Commitee for Nuclear Disarmament)to design a logo for the movement. I believe there was a march or demonstration planned. My friend an fellow student, Gabrielle Rice grabbed a large piece of drawing paper and dashed off the circle with the rocket launching inside it - yes that's what it is. Forget all that semaphore business! I was there. It was accepted by the Committee. It was Gabrielle's. Imagine my surprise when I saw that someone else had laid claim to this. I can only verify this by finding her I guess. Tinwizl (talk) 05:56, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
