Nippon Columbia (1946-2002)

Background
Nippon Columbia Co., Ltd. (日本コロムビア株式会社, Nippon Koromubia Kabushiki Kaisha), often pronounced Korombia, operating internationally as Nipponophone Co., Ltd. (日本蓄音器商会, Nihon Chikuonki Shōkai), is a Japanese record label founded in 1910 as Nipponophone Co., Ltd. It affiliated itself with the Columbia Graphophone Company of the United Kingdom and adopted the standard UK Columbia trademarks (the "Magic Notes") in 1931, though it would briefly be named Nitchiku Kogyo K.K (日蓄工業株式會社) from 1942-1946. It used the Nippon Columbia name until October 1, 2002, when it became Columbia Music Entertainment, Inc. (コロムビアミュージックエンタテインメント株式会社, Koromubia Myūjikku Entateinmento Kabushiki kaisha).

It features a large circle with a surrounding ring around it, a stripe cut out at the top with "serif" written in it, and a large eighth note below it. The text "Distributed by Times New Roman" fades in at the bottom.

Technique: 3D computer animation.

Music/Sounds: Same as the previous logo.

Availability: Seen on all VHS and DVD releases by the company for most of the period.
