'''Logo:''' It's nearly the same as before, but the ribboning is slightly re-done and a different lion (name unknown) appears here. The usual MGM marquee is seen below. The ribboning is white, the wreath is {{Font color|gold|yellow}}, the mask is {{Font color|red|red}}, and the marquee is {{Font color|green|green}}. | |||
'''FX/SFX:''' TBA | |||
'''Music/Sounds:''' The only movies this is known to appear on were silent, so the logo either has silence or the movie's intro music. | |||
'''Availability:''' This logo was used on early color silent films. It appeared on ''The Heart of General Robert E. Lee'', which is currently being restored by the Library of Congress. It is also said to appear on a film entitled ''Buffalo Bill's Last Fight''. The logo should be retained if either film is shown on TCM. | |||
'''Editor's Note:''' MGM's early attempt at a color logo, and color films in general. | |||

'''Editor's Note:''' Along with Tanner, Jackie rates at the top with logo enthusiasts as far as MGM lions go. He was the third-longest lion to be used behind Tanner and Leo. | '''Editor's Note:''' Along with Tanner, Jackie rates at the top with logo enthusiasts as far as MGM lions go.
