It's not gone, it's just borked, methinketh, the way Miraheze's widgets display it.

Anyway, here's a working copy of the link. https://vimeo.com/266023105

(Wow, I prefer some of those music tracks over what we got)

In addition to the unused Marvel logo, I found on Prologue's Vimeo this unused (if very simplistic) Kojima Productions logo. https://vimeo.com/190801112

And this AMAZING DC one that I wish was used, as it's probably the best logo the company has ever had. https://vimeo.com/165972350

Thanks LogoFun! That still leaves Kojima with a watermark at the moment though.

In fact, that Fox fanfare is from Something's Gotta Give (1962), Marilyn Monroe's last film when she died during production. This film, and the logo was hidden in the Fox archives and was thought to be lost media. So the fanfare is a later addition, and this logo was once silent.

FINALLY! I found a rare variant of the 1953 Fox logo with the 1997 fanfare, unfortunately I can't upload it to Vidlii. I uploaded it to Vimeo instead.

Earlier this month, Central's trees ident has been found by MrHammadmossop1988 Ul-Haq and Daniel Mullins.


I also found Carlton's Soldier, Soldier ident, from a file which was uploaded to MHP's PP in 2006.

Hello there again! Remember the Warner Bros. Pictures 75 Years discovery with the copyright stamp from the 16mm film? Well, FT Depot posted something in the morning. Thought you guys may like hearing this. (Also, feel free to feature the photo!)

This now confirms 3 cases of a copyright stamp appearing in the 1998 logo.

I'm sorry, this is super embarrassing, but I can't make my own forum page regarding a recent Lost Media Wiki article about a serious logo mystery I never knew of until today (the unidentified music Malibu Video stole). I try to make it but it says that my page title ("Fascinating Logo Mystery Courtesy of Lost Media Wiki" and other variants of that) "cannot exist as a WikiPage" in red text. What do I do?

You're not alone. I'm having the exact same problem. It appears to be a bug Miraheze is experiencing at the moment.

Well, I found that Viva Sports ident from 2004. And yes, it is from that "Manny Pacquiao Story" thing, and like the truth of any myth, it is pretty underwhelming (the ident, not the movie).

So yeah, I was looking around Vimeo to see what rare Sony stuff I could find when I found this:

Look, I know you might be thinking that I'm doing all this because I'm desperate to be brought back to the Discord server, but believe me, these aren't my intentions at all. I'm very interested in rare logo stuff, that's all. Now, if you want to watch the original video this logo came from, here it is:

I can't see the video, sadly...

It says that it couldn't find it, almost like it was immediately deleted after you found it.

It's because they put out the wrong link.

Hi again. Today might be the day the THX Cimarron trailer with the original sound mix is discovered. Someone posted this video to the Discord server. Take a look. (And take this with a grain of salt)

The trailer begins at 0:31.

EmbedVideo is missing a required parameter.

Can you tell the uploader of the video to digitize the film? Or might be there other digital versions of the original Cimarron fanfare?

Indeed, the THX Cimarron page on the Lost Media Wiki is now labeled "Found", and I can't believe it. A major logo mystery solved.

Major discoveries happen every few months/years. Giving a few examples of what I mean, 2 years ago I found the WHV 1985 "prototype", which it ultimately never was.

Another example is the Viacom 1985-1986 city logo, which has had three discoveries over the course of 2019-2022. One in Christmas 2019 from a sizzle reel, and the latter two being in mid 2022, seperated by a few months.

After those, a few months later, the original score for the Cimarron logo gets found.

I predict in the future that even more rare logos will be found over time, with more and more logo hunters getting better and emerging from the shadows. Only time will tell.

I just received a Betamax tape of The Miracle of Lake Placid that has a seemingly unique ABC Video Enterprises logo at the end, resembling the "ABC Circle in a V" print logo that was on the cover.

Do you have a capture of this? I'm curious on how it looks like. User:IlCattivo25

I'll capture it if I can find an opportunity. I'm not promising top quality, however, given the playback quality of my Beta tapes has proven hit-and-miss, with some tapes having a lot of snow in the video and others being outright difficult to just play through from start to finish without fluctuations in speed and sudden stops. This one, on the other hand, looks like one of my better Betas, with the snow being generally restricted to the bottom of the video from what I have seen personally.

Ramu Films may be infamous for (perfectly) stealing the concept of Fox's 1994 logo, but I finally found their last logo from 2015.

I've found a Unused variant of Network Nine's 10th logo.

It's inside this techdemo commentary by PDI, which did the NBC Movie logos from 1987.

An Unused CBC Logo!

Hi there again.. I got a discovery to revive, right here. This find by Ericcorpinc used to be featured in the original CLG wiki at Wikifoundry, but since at least 2020 it has been forgotten by the community.. hence why I brought this back up! You can decide if this is still feature-worthy or not, but considering other WF era features were re-implemented, I think this one should get the treatment too.

Don’t really have footage of it, but there’s a 4:3 version of the 2021 eOne logo on the 35th Anniversary Blu-ray release of Transformers: The Movie.

Well... I found the possibly first Narsimha Enterprises logo in 1987.


NOTEː The logo is muted because of my dumbfounded brain not discovering the unmute button at the time. It's also unrated.
