<u>Music/Sounds Variant: | <u>Music/Sounds Variant:</u> A variant of the yellow text version had no announcer (much like the version with the red text), this is only known to have appeared on the original 1982 VHS & Betamax release of ''Gallipoli''. | ||
<u>Availability:</u> Rare. Seen on Australian VHS & Betamax tapes in the early '80s, including ''First Blood'', ''Mad Max'', ''Gallipoli'', ''Alvin Purple'', ''An American Werewolf In London'', ''Far East'', ''Mr. Mom'', and ''Cujo''; it was also seen on early [[Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment|Walt Disney Home Video]] releases they distributed beginning in 1985. The very first Roadshow Home Video releases were ''Mad Max'', ''Atlantic City'', ''Insatiable'', ''Sex World'', ''King of the Mountain'', ''Montenegro'', ''A Change of Seasons'', ''The Never Dead'' (aka ''Phantasm''), ''Little Lord Fauntleroy'', ''Endless Love'', and ''Scanners'' (very likely the first title released by Roadshow Home Video). Tapes with this logo are not easy to find nowadays (usually on such covers the "Roadshow" text is in the same font as this logo, with "Home Video" and "Presents" underneath it), so check eBay Australia or your local second hand stores for tapes with this logo. Titles released under the Roadshow Vibrant Video label should also have this logo, despite the different logo on the cover. One of the last tapes to use this logo was ''The Mean Season''. | <u>Availability:</u> Rare.
