Paramount Pictures Television
From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum
(1959-1961?)
Nickname: "Majestic Mountain"
Logo: It's the same as their movie counterpart of the time, but with several differences:
- This time it's referred as "Paramount Pictures", not as "A Paramount Picture".
- The text "PRODUCED BY", in a Times New Roman-like font, appears above the Paramount name.
FX/SFX: The clouds moving.
Music/Sounds: A majestic fanfare. Other times, it's the closing theme, a voiceover, a combination of a theme and a voiceover, or silence. For example on the game show Seven Keys, the host says "Jack Narz speaking, Seven Keys is a Paramount television production".
Availability: Ultra rare. This has been spotted on public domain video releases of the 1959 TV movie Destination Space.
Editor's Note: This is the first time a Paramount movie logo was used for television.
