Background
The following is a compilation of international variants of the 1929 RKO Radio Pictures logo.

(1929?-1959?)
Nicknames: "The Transmitter", "The Globe and Tower"

Logo: On a cloudy background we see a radio tower situated on top of a still Earth globe. The radio tower is sending out signals illustrated by lightning bolts and sound waves coming from its transmitter. The text "La Radio Pictures presenta" (1930s) or "la RKO Radio Films presenta" (dates unknown) fades in itself on the logo in a "thunderbolt" font.
