'''Music/Sounds Variant:''' On a few videos, a female voice-over is heard saying, "The best of children's entertainment, presented by... Golden Book Video". This variant was put at the beginning of the video.

'''Availability:''' Rarer than the opening variant. It was seen at the end of a handful of Golden Book video releases from 1985 (that have the "version 1" fanfare on the beginning logo). This logo was spotted on VHS releases of ''Masters of the Universe - 3 Stories'', ''Three Richard Scarry Animal Nursery Tales'' and ''Herbert the Timid Dragon and Other Tales'', to name a few. It was also seen on reissues of said videos well into 1991. It also shows up in the middle of ''Masters of the Universe - 4 Stories'' (in-between the second and third stories). It also surprisingly appeared at the end of the 1993 VHS, Scholastic DVD and Amazon Prime Video release of ''Commander Toad in Space'', long after it was no longer in regular use (likely due to that program's science-fiction theme). In a few rare cases on some Canadian releases, this actually replaces the opening logo at the beginning of the videos (with voice-over), and was only spotted on a few releases, such as the 1986 release of ''Sandra Beech: The Pretend Box'' (to name one).

'''Editor's Note:''' This logo is pretty notorious due to its eerie and ominous atmosphere, and the rather cold way it caps off the company's tapes that used it, both of which seem quite unfitting for videos meant for children. An exception is at the end of ''Commander Toad in Space'', where it fits better with the program's science-fiction theme.
