1st (known) Logo
(1974-1986)
Nicknames: "The Gem", "The Exploding Pizza"

Logo: On a blue BG, we see several orange objects forming in the center of the screen via a kaleidoscope effect, forming CBC's logo, which consists of a red C with several orange and yellow curved lines and half circles on the outer edge.

FX: The kaleidoscope effect formed by the shapes reflected through mirrors as they slide out.

Music/Sounds: A slightly dramatic string sounder with an announcer saying "This is CBC.". The announcer's spiel is sometimes changed to say "This is the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation.". For those living in Montreal, where CBC is called "Radio-Canada", a different announcer says "Ici Radio-Canada.".

Availability: Extinct on TV.

Scare Factor: Low; this is a favorite among many Canadians.

2nd Logo
(1986-1993)
