On films such as ''The Golden Child'' and ''Hot Pursuit'' (the former being one of the first films to use this logo, while the latter has the normal music), a different 75th Anniversary disclaimer appears, the Paramount script is slightly smaller, and the Gulf+Western byline is also set in Helvetica Bold Condensed. It is unknown if ''Crimes of the Heart'' and ''King Kong Lives'', the first two DEG films to use this logo for their Canadian release, used this variant as well. | * <u>December 12, 1986-December 18, 1987:</u> For the logo's debut and its first official year (1987, even though the logo actually debuted in 1986), the words "{{font|Times New Roman|'''''{{color|silver|75<small><sup>th</sup></small>}} {{color|#EDD602|Anniversary}}'''''}}" appear over the mountain, between the Paramount script logo and the Gulf + Western byline.

** A <u>second prototype variant</u> also exists, where the Paramount script is still slightly small, but contains elements of the official variant, including the refined 75th Anniversary disclaimer.
