There's two ABC color bumpers out there somewhere: One with the same announcer but with a different music theme. Second bumper, has the great Curt Gowdy announcing "This is an ABC SPORTS Color Presentation" that comes in before ABC Wild World of Sports, The American Sportsman and The Olympics.
This bumper was used from 1963 through 1966, at a time when the network was only telecasting two or three color shows in prime-time every week (they didn't begin carrying almost half of their evening schedule in color until the fall of '65!). In the fall of '66 [when they began telecasting 100% color series in prime-time], this gave way to individual "custom" color bumpers for each series.
Actually that ABC Circle logo was not introduced on TV until the beginning of the 1962-63 season in early October of 1962, in which the Big "A" logo was used clear up until then(through the first three quarters of 1962 anyway, even including the promo previews of that upcoming new season in September of 1962 as well with the alternative "animated a-b-c letters filling a rectangle" logo that was used in conjunction with the Big "A" logo back then).
Does anybody have the B&W A.B.C. logo with the big "A" with "A.B.C." in lowercase letters? it was featured at the end of A.B.C. shows in the late '50s up until 1963.

I would love to see the 'sneezing' NBC Peacock logo that was done for Laugh-in here on YouTube. I remember seeing it on 'TV's Bloopers and Practical Jokes'.
NBC's system won out, but CBS had experimented with color so was more ready for it even though its system was rejected.

ABC's color presentation music and logo was cool compared to NBC's color presentation logo and music, which featured their peacock.
Hearing NBC's music and seeing their peacock scared the heck out of me when I was a small kid.
