At the bottom of the screen is a box with two Paramount pseudo-logos on either side. Each has a ring of stars inside a ring, both of which read "Paramount Pictures". At the top of the box is a copyright stamp. Inside the box are the words "FAMOUS PLAYERS-LASKY CORPORATION". Below that are the words "ADOLPH ZUKOR, ''President''" (with "President" in a script font) in a slightly smaller font. Below that are the words "NEW YORK CITY". Below the box is, in a large font, "ALL RIGHTS RESERVED". | |||
