(Late 1970s-Mid 1980s)
Logo: Against a black background, we see a white line drawing in what looks like a TV tube, but it drops down to write an "S", then writing out the word "Select" in a very fancy cursive font. As it finishes the "T", the line drops down to form an underline, then, a rainbow-colored "Video" in a font similar to the UK Palace Video logo, zooms out. Three stars blink on the logo.

Variant: There was a closing logo that was silent and had the ending animation.

FX/SFX: The drawing in of the logo, "Video" zooming out, the stars blinking...

Cheesy Factor: ...all typical 1980s effects.

Music/Sounds: A very ominous Moog synthesizer jingle that sounds (a little) like the 1985 FHE "Writing Pad" jingle, then four synth dings as the three stars blink (why four?).

Availability: Can be found on old UK Popeye, Lassie, and Zorro videos distributed by Video Gems. Also found on a German Asterix VHS.

Scare Factor: Medium to high. The ominous music can unsettle some viewers.
