  • Zukor's company was originally Famous Players in Famous Players. His partners were Jessie Lasky and Sam Goldwyn. Paramount was formed out of the merger of a dozen State's Rights film exchanges with the name Paramount-Famous-Lasky.

    But this is the standard theatrical trademark and has nothing to do with television.

    The KTLA trademark footage from the late 40s is more accurate as its earliest one since Paramount had a interest in the station.

  • What film is this from?

  • this should have been a 25th anniversary logo and nobody will tell me i got 1912 mixed up with 1914 means its not 25 years. i have proof that wasn't found in 1914. it was 1912. go to wikipedia to see for yourself

  • Paramount was found in 1912. That is why 1987 is 75 years and when it was 2002 its 90 years. Tell your friends they are wrong because if it was 1914 it would of been 2004 when they celebrated 90 years. 2002 was 90 years so it was found in 1912 so this would be 25 years.

  • @wrkn258 "When Catches Go Wrong" from 1937.

    FYI: It was Adolph Zukor's company Famous Players Inc. that was founded in 1912. The Paramount label of which he distributed his films under came out two years later. Ergo, Paramount will be 100 years old in 2012.

  • you are saying paramount television 1937. dude there wasn't television until 1949!

  • Guess what? It is how about that technicolor logo 1928? well heres one thing. They didn't have television but there was something else they went to. So we suggest you to just stop. Paramount was founded in 1912 making movies ever since then where would they put the movies? on something? We heard they went to the theatres to watch so that is one thing so I have proved it. So I suggest you don't waste your time commenting stuff like that which is stupid.

  • okay, forget i said that. i was kinda thinking what you just said

  • @wrkn258 Actually television was born in America in 1925.

  • @LucaC1993 Correct.

    1920s: Farnsworth invents electronic TV

    1930: NBC puts experimental station W2XBS on the air

    1939: RCA's David Sarnoff heralds the dawn of commercial TV at the NY World's Fair

    July 1, 1941: FCC grants licenses to WNBT Channel 1 (NBC) and WCBW Channel 2 (CBS)

    December 1941: WW2 puts a stop to everything

    1946: With the war over, TV begins anew...and continues to this day.

  • @wannawatchu66 The point wrkn258 makes is, Paramount was not into television production until 1949, with the critically acclaimed "Time For Beany", the puppet show that would serve as the basis for the aminated "Beany and Cecil". This example was made, of course, for a theatrical production, not a television program.

  • @KidCairbre "Aminated"? Hmm...should be "animated". I think.

  • This was presenting when catches go wrong in 1937 after Jarradversal lost their logo after a idoit did something
