1st Logo (1992-2002)
Logo: Essentially, it consists of a realistic image of a grasshopper next to the company name. The latter is usually seen within in-credit information.

Variant: On A Small Miracle, the grasshopper is shown within a horizontal oval with a black outlne.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the programme.

Availability: Can be seen on their small output of three releases premiered within 10 days, starting with On Christmas Eve and later appearing on The Mousehole Cat and A Small Miracle. It was also seen on a 90's re-printing of A Pattern of Roses. This logo is intact on DVD and on-demand releases in spite of the next logo plastering this on a few programmes.

2nd Logo (2007-)
Logo: An drawing of a grasshopper is shown, coloured in and  colours. It is seen against a partially cut light green circle with a outline. Underneath the picture is "GRASSHOPPER" in a hand-written serif font.

Variants:
 * On a modern re-edit of Emma and Grandpa, the grasshopper has more detail.
 * On Mouse and Mole at Christmas Time, the text now reads the company's name in Times New Roman.

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: The ending theme of the programme.

Availability: Seen on re-edited versions of a few vintage programmes produced in their early years such as Stories from East of the Moon and Emma and Grandpa. The only programme that contains and premiered within this logo's lifespan is Mouse and Mole at Christmas Time.
