Compagnie Parisienne de Location de Films

Background
La Compagnie Parisienne de Location de Films (or CPLF) was a French production and distribution company that was around from the 1930s to 40s. They began distributing Gaumont's movies in 1942. They would later be folded into Gaumont.

(1935-1942)
Logo: We see a still globe with a dark filmstrip wrapped around it with "C.P.L.F." in a slightly lighter color placed on it. Not long after the logo starts, "LA" wipes in with "C", "P", "L", and "F" appearing on separate rows and are diagonally apart from one another. After appearing, the company's full name wipes in starting with the initial letter on each row (except for the last two, in which "DE" wipes before the first letters). Finally, "PRÉSENTE" wipes at the bottom right corner of the screen.

FX/SFX: The text wiping in.

Music/Sounds: The opening of the movie.

Availability: Very rare. This was seen on movies during this era such as Pour Le maillot jaune and La prison sans barreaux.

Editor's Note: CPLF's logo looks very similar to the early one Gaumont used for its 1942 logo. The difference here is that CPLF's filmstrip is more wavy compared to Gaumont's, not to mention that a remainder of the filmstrip can be seen underneath the globe itself.
