'''Availability:''' The B&W 1967 logo made an appearance on the VHS release of ''Our Neighbor, Fred Rogers'', but has been cut from TV rebroadcasts of the documentary since 2003. It can be seen on several shows available for viewing at The Paley Center for Media, including the series premiere episodes of ''Mister Rogers' Neighborhood'' (1967 version, B&W), ''Black Journal'' (1967 version, color), and ''Sesame Street'' (1968 version, color). Though the videocassette release of the ''Mister Rogers' Neighborhood'' episode "Death of a Goldfish" plasters the standard version of the 1968 logo with the 1971 [[Public Broadcasting Service|PBS]] logo, the show's in-credit variant remains. The 1968 opening and closing versions can also be seen on the ''Sesame Street: Old School Volume 2'' DVD set on the test pilot episode. The 1968 closing version can be found on a handful of 1969-70 ''Mister Rogers' Neighborhood'' episodes on Twitch (most plaster it with the 1971 PBS logo), as well as early on in the documentary ''Mr. Soul!''. The 1967 closing version can be found on all 1968 black and white episodes of ''Mister Rogers' Neighborhood'', including episodes streaming on Twitch as well as episodes 1-5 on Amazon. The 1968 alternative closing logo is quite rare; it can be seen on ''Black Journal'' (1967 version, color). Its last confirmed new appearance was on ''Realities''; the 1970 PBS logo plasters it on repeats, as seen on the series premiere (this logo can be found on a film print of the same show). The special program variant appears on ''Assessment of Cambodia''. This logo first appeared on ''Conversations 1967''. All variants, color and B&W, can be seen on over 100+ programs available for viewing on the American Archive of Public Broadcasting website.

'''Legacy:''' This is by far the most well-known NET logo. With its mellotron fanfare, the announcer, the dark background, and the low audio and grainy film quality, it gained a reputation for frightening children who grew up with ''Mister Rogers' Neighborhood'' or ''Sesame Street''.
