Logo descriptions and captures by Eric S.
Background: This was the movie production/distribution arm of National Telefilm Associates, Inc. (now CBS Television Distribution).
1st Logo
(1966-1971?)
Nickname: "The Commonwealth Displayer"
Logo: On a black background, we see white spots (as it were a football displayer) appearing on determined places on the screen, then, silhouettes of all continents in the
world appears, made of color spots also. Once all the continents have appeared, a blue background (made of spots) wipes from the left. Once completed, all screen turns blue. The letters "COMMONWEALTH UNITED" (in brown, and made with spots too) appears. After a few seconds, the lettering turns light pink, and the background turns darker. Then, the background turns black, and the letters change to yellow, and at the end, to white.
FX/SFX: The spots appearing, wiping...
Cheesy Factor: The continents are drawn poorly, especially South America.
Music/Sounds: Several "ding" like sounds when the white spots appears, then a funky brass melody is heard, accompanied with bass and piano.
Availability: Rare. Can be seen on NTA and Republic VHS's and also in some Blue Underground DVD releases of their films.
Scare Factor: Minimal.
