Vitagraph Studios

Background
Vitagraph Studios, also known as the Vitagraph Company of America, was a film studio founded by J. Stuart Blackton and Albert E. Smith in 1897 in Brooklyn, New York, originally titled the American Vitagraph Company. In the late 1900s, Vitagraph was one of the most prolific American film studios. However, World War I would mark a decline for the company thanks to the rise of the Studio system. This led Albert E. Smith to sell the company to Warner Bros. Pictures on April 20, 1925. The Vitagraph name had a brief revival in the 1960s, appearing on the end titles of Looney Tunes shorts between 1960 and 1968, while Merry Melodies would use the Vitaphone name.

(December 25, 1911-1925?)
Logo: On a black background, we see a white print of an eagle standing on an emblem with a "V" on it. The text "THE VITAGRAPH CO." arcs above the eagle, whereas the words "TRADE" and "MARK" are next to it and "LONDON" is underneath.

Variant: A version for Paris productions exist where the bottom text is replaced with "PARIS", the "O" in "CO." is smaller and aligned to the top as well as the period being omitted, the eagle and the "V" have clearer details as well as fill, and the logo is closer to the screen.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: None. Availability: Ultra rare. Was seen on The Greater Love, Aunty's Romance, and The Helpful Sisterhood.
