  You would have to first off set for no header at appearance > header. Then you would have to target each individual page of your site by page ID such as below.

  .page-id-4 #branding img {
  background: url("URL of image") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
  }

  You will have to do the above for each page, and any pages you add in the future will require another entry into the CSS.

  This thread has been flagged so our Moderator move it to the CSS editing forum for you.

  The only themes that support custom headers for each page use the featured image feature. See here >

  When you CSS edit a blog the header image uploader is no longer used. You have to upload your image into the Media Library and then place the link in the CSS. http://en.support.wordpress.com/themes/custom-header-image/

  G’day TT, and thanks. I forgot to mention that the OP will not be able to use the custom header uploader with the solution above.

  @cleavingtochrist, with Coraline, you can even do this without the CSS by uploading your image from within the page and then setting that image as a featured image for that page.
