'''Availability:''' Extremely rare. Seen on releases distributed by the Walt Disney Telecommunications and Theatrical Company (i.e. Walt Disney Home Video). Releases of ''The Muppet Show'' and ''Fraggle Rock'' during this time used this logo, as well as the movie ''The Dark Crystal''. Some Australian tapes released by PBV Video may also use this logo (or might use the first one instead), as well as some British tapes released by [[RCA/Columbia Pictures International Video]].
