''' | '''Visuals:''' Like the 1942 version of the 1936-1976 [[Columbia Pictures]] logo, we see a lady (Columbia, a representation of the USA) holding a light torch on top a pedestal with a backdrop of clouds over her. The Torch Lady's head and upper body is between the words "SCREEN GEMS" with the letter "{{Font|Times New Roman|'''''A'''''}}" in Vivaldi font above it and "FILM PRESENTATION" or "FILM PRODUCTION" below it. The byline "TELEVISION SUBSIDIARY COLUMBIA PICTURES CORPORATION" appears below that. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' Same as the 1955 logo, excluding the clouds and the additional captions. Only the name "{{font|Arial Narrow|'''SCREEN GEMS'''}}" remains, and the words are smaller and somewhat stretched out, and are shown on each side of the Torch Lady's lower body and legs. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' Eleven animated lines "drop down" at the right of the black screen to ascending jazz notes as a swarm of circles scatter near the middle of the left side leaving behind the words "'''SCREEN GEMS'''" in a Benguiat Frisky font (these circles were what one rec.arts.animation post described as the "spotlights". The "stars" may come from the fact that the circles sparkle like stars). As this happens, the lines shrink somewhat and spread out, filling the right half and shaking slightly back and forth. | ||

''' | '''Visuals:''' On a {{color|#FFD900|yellow}} background, two {{color|red}} parallelograms (or lines) come from the top and bottom of the screen, and the upper one is at a distance while the lower is closer. They fly towards each other, and the higher moves forward while the lower backs away. As they do so, they grow in length and wrap around a space where a {{color|red}} dot appears, forming a stylized "{{color|red|'''''S'''''}}". Under that, the text "'''SCREEN GEMS'''" zooms in. | ||
