Prairie Public Television
1st Logo
(1980-1986)


Logo: Just a random nature or North Dakota-related picture on a black BG with "Prairie Public Television" below.
Variant: Sometimes, the picture takes up the whole screen and the network's name would be written above or to one side (aligned vertically).
FX: It's a still logo.
Music/Sounds: Just an announcer saying "This is Prairie Public Television; KSRE, channel 6, Minot, KFME, channel 13, Fargo, KGFE, channel 2, Grand Forks, and KBME, channel 3, Bismarck.". This announcement varies depending on the ID (such as mentioning the stations in a different order, mentioning only Grand Forks and Fargo, saying "Prairie Public TV, refreshing television." at the beginning, etc...).
Availability: Extinct; only used as a local ID within the North Dakota area.
Scare Factor: None.

3rd Logo
(1986-1989?)
Description coming soon!
4th Logo
(1989)
Nickname: "Rotating Cube in Space", "25 Years of PPT"
Logo: We fade into a space background with a tan cube that spins and rotates and moves all over the screen. On each face of the cube are pink call letters, numbers and words:
As the cube leaves the screen, a bluish-tinted purple rectangle with steel on its side drops down, then rotates into place while some lines similar to the 1989 PBS Glass logo wipe in top, center, and bottom. Finally, "Praire Public Television" (outlined in yellow) and "25 YEARS" (in white) zoom out and place themselves in the center.
FX: The rotating cube, the rectangle dropping, "Prairie Public Television" and "25 Years" zooming out together. Not bad for animation here!
Music/Sounds: A triumphant synthesized orchestra fanfare with chimes.
Availability: Extinct; this was only seen as a "You're Watching" local ID for PPT around that time.
Scare Factor: Low.
