National Telefilm Associates Cartoons

Background
These logos were used in the 50s and 60s on syndicated TV prints of pre-1950 Paramount cartoons.

(1957-1970s)
Logo: It's nearly the same as the movie logo of the time. On a wavy line pattern background, we see three filmstrip frames in a row, with the letters "NTA" placed inside each one and a filmreel with a filmstrip unfolding from it and curling down the screen behind them. The words "Serif" are below them, with the "Serif", "Serif", and "Serif" being larger than the other letters.

Variants:
 * For black & white cartoons, there is a black & white version with the words "An" and "Release" in italics above and below the logo respectively.
 * Sometimes, especially at the end of a cartoon, the words "An" and "Release" are included, and there's a copyright stamp reading "COPYRIGHT [year] BY U.M.&M TV CORP." below.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: The opening and closing themes of the cartoon.

Availability: Common. Public domain prints of pre-1950 cartoon shorts from Paramount have this logo present (excluding the orginal Popeye shorts, which were distributed by A.A.P.). It's a lot more common than the logo of U.M.&M. (which had distributed them since January 1956 before being bought out a year later), most likely due to the prints being easier to find. Many public domain DVDs and VHS's of old cartoons still contain this, usually due to them using older prints.

Legacy: Same as the standard logo.
