Assign unique custom icons to individual pages of the same page type

Using the following code in "mysite/_config.php"

ErrorPage::$icon = array('themes/rohitbanerjee-blocko/images/icons/error',"file");

I was successful in overriding the default icon for any page type, where I didn't want to change any original code, but simply customize it in my way, in my code base.

However, I was wondering if I could similarly assign unique icons to unique pages with the same PageType/Class, rather than unnecessarily creating separate PageType/Class just for the icons.

Lets say I have 2 pages "About Us" and "Services" with the same PageType "Page", then can I assign an icon in the following similar fashion for the 2 pages as below:

Page::->$SomeFunctionToIdentifyPageObject("About Us")->$icon = array('themes/rohitbanerjee-blocko/images/icons/about',"file");
Page::->$SomeFunctionToIdentifyPageObject("Services")->$icon = array('themes/rohitbanerjee-blocko/images/icons/services',"file");

provided I have the relevant icon image files in place.

Any help is immensely appreciated.

I'm sure this was not a stupid question. But nobody attempted to answer at all??
