'''Music/Sounds:''' The updated 1st logo fanfare leading into the trademark ''Tom and Jerry'' music with the 1960 roaring soundtrack. For non-Tom and Jerry cartoons, a different fanfare is used.

'''Availability:''' Rare. Seen on the Chuck Jones-produced ''Tom and Jerry'' cartoons, which are still rerun on Boomerang on a semi-regular basis and on MeTV as part of its ''Toon In with Me'' and ''Saturday Morning Cartoons'' blocks, and all are available on DVD. The version that doesn't fade to Tom is featured on non-Tom and Jerry cartoons, such as "The Bear That Wasn't".

'''Editor's Note:''' The animated part in the ''Tom and Jerry'' variant makes the logo something special. It is a generally well liked logo, and a quite creative one as well, but this logo also has a fairly bad reputation for appearing on one of the most deeply polarizing eras of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer cartoons, when production moved back in-house at Chuck Jones Studios with a mostly-new crew and substantially smaller budgets.
