40 Years of The Swoosh

I recently found out this year marks the 40th anniversary of Nike own's, "The Swoosh". The design was created by Carolyn Davidson, who at the time was a student in one of Phil Knight's accounting classes at Portland State University. Asked by Knight to work on a few side projects in graphic design for Blue Ribbon Sports, she developed the logo and only billed the company $35. The logo was launched on June 18th, 1971 which was feature on the upcoming Nike soccer cleat. In 1983, Knight presented Davidson with a diamond swoosh ring and granted her stock of the Nike Company (500 shares which is set to be worth $1 million today) as a token of his appreciation.

Watch a clip of the '83 presentation after the jump. Spotted at Rudytees.
