1st (known) Logo
(1980s)
Nickname: "Dark Map"

Logo: We see a revolving black globe up close at an angle, with blue land masses that have white outlines. Zooming in are the words "WESTCON HOME VIDEO" in a metallic blue color. The byline "A WESTCON COMPANY (c)" fades in below. The map fades out.

FX: The revolving map and zooming letters.

Cheesy Factor: Early computer graphics.

Music/Sounds: A calm country tune performed on an electric piano with an announcer saying "The best in movie entertainment, brought to you by Westcon Home Video.".

Availability: Seen on British and Swedish tapes from the '80s.

Scare Factor: Minimal; the darkness may scare some.
