Golden Book Video/Home Entertainment Warning Screen
1st Warning
(1985-1987)
Warning: On a black background, we see the warning text, with "WARNING:" in red, and the rest of the text in white and in capital letters, with "WESTERN PUBLISHING COMPANY, INC." in larger letters (on some videos, it varies: the Sesame Street ones use "CHILDREN'S TELEVISION WORKSHOP and MUPPETS, INC." and Herbert the Timid Dragon and Other Tales uses "MERCER MAYER" instead.).
FX: None.
Availability: Seen on all videos from this era with the 1985-1986 music and the scary "Space" closing logo at the end, including the early Golden Step Ahead releases, and on some 1986 Golden Book Video releases using the 1986-1996 music.
Scare Factor: Low to medium.
2nd Warning
(1987-2002)
Warning: Similar to the previous, except it appears in a somewhat modified font (except for "WARNING:" which appears in the same font), and is smaller in text. The warning text in white is now in lowercase.
FX: None.
Availability: Seen on all Golden Book Video releases from 1987-1996 with the 1986-1996 jingle, as well as GoldenVision, Golden Step Ahead, and Golden Books Home/Family Entertainment releases (later co-released by Sony Wonder).
Scare Factor: Low.
