Added TOC. Also added image for the 9th logo, which I'm not sure should be considered a logo or not, because even though it's just text, it appears that way consistently on most of the movies that used it.

'''Availability:''' Usually preserved on United Artists films of the era, as it is technically an in-credit logo and later prints still use this text. Films with this logo include ''Octopussy'', ''Rocky IV'', ''Curse of the Pink Panther'', ''WarGames'', and some public domain prints of 1971's ''Born to Win'', among others. Oddly, this in-credit text was used to plaster the 1968 logo on ''Support Your Local Sheriff!'' instead of the previous logo, and is intact on its most recent releases. This appeared on the original VHS release and the 2001 DVD of ''Youngblood'', but recent prints replace this with the next logo, or in the case of Encore's print, remove it entirely (while retaining the MGM Lion logo of the era). It also appears on the Japanese laser videodisc of ''Diamonds Are Forever'', followed by the previous logo. | '''Availability:''' Usually preserved on United Artists films of the era, as it is technically an in-credit logo and later prints still use this text.
