PBS logo from 1970's

There were many applications and incarnations of the PBS logo throughout the decades. This one aired after each episode of the series "Woman" (from WNED-TV) in the early to mid 1970's.

I'm an editor at the PBS station covering Buffalo NY and Toronto, OT. This was the PBS branding element we placed on our "Woman" series that PBS aired.

We have a tape library the size of a small restaurant filled with old shows we're sloooowly converting to digital files like this one. There is no money to do this work, so we have to be careful not to damage the tape machines by running too many old tapes through them at once.

Thanks for watching!

Man, those old-school synthesizers are awesome to the max! I'm about to try to find one on ebay!

I love the retro trumpet style sounds those old synths made back then.

I never liked any of these loud and obnoxious logos at all. :(

@vigilante11485 No kidding that they are awesome to the max, especially the Moog Modular ones, which I believe the jingle was recorded with.

@ArchiveWNED hay ive been a PBS kids fan since the early 2000's and even throw im 15, i still watch PBS kids, that's how awesome PBS is!!!!!. My local broadcasting station is WSKG TV Binghamton New York USA. Channel lucky 7. (just 7, i like saying lucky 7 now to refer to it, LOL). And if im on vacation anywhere in the USA i always say "what channel is PBS on here?," before anything else. Now that im getting older its not as important to me as much, but its cool, no AWESOME!!!

After the cursive lettering appears, the candles then dissolve to the abstract-cut letters of the tri-colored PBS logo. The blue 'P' is wearing a Santa hat!

You should try and find the Christmas interstitial you might have used as did other PBS stations like mine in Houston, Texas; KUHT-TV 8, of the tri-colored PBS I.D. logo. As I vaguely remember, it started out with this animation of three thick candles on a dining room table, in blue, orange and green. A Christmas tree might have been in the background with presents around it. Then this cursive writing appears, letter by letter, under the candles reading "Season's Greetings."
