RKO Radio Pictures/Logo Variations
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937): Neither the "Transmitter" nor the "Thunderbolt" logos are shown before the film, only a text notice shown after the title among other credits. The "Thunderbolt" closing logo still appears at the end, but on a jeweled background, with the words "A WALT DISNEY FEATURE" in white, "Production" in bright turquoise script below that, and "IN TECHNICOLOR" in white below that in a smaller face.
