<u>Logo:</u> On a black background, three small {{Font color|orange|orange}} rectangles appear, the outer two stretching down, the one in the center extending up, then they stretch, break up and multiply to become an orange box containing a large, black stylized “'''HB'''” cutout.

Finally, a {{Font color|gold|yellow}} stylized “'''{{Font color|gold|HB}}'''” (using the same style as the black one) slowly fades in. | ||
<u>Later Variant:</u> There’s another version from 1968 featuring nearly the same starting animation, with the rectangles moving the directions they’re supposed to extend instead of stretching before they actually do, but when the black zooming “'''HB'''” disappears (it doesn't move off its path), it cuts to a {{Font color|red|red}} “'''{{Font color|red|HB}}'''” with the text already on it in {{Font color|blue|blue}}, with the small “a” box being {{Font color|darkblue|dark blue}} and the letter in {{Font color|gold|yellow}}. It features a byline reading “{{Font color|darkblue|a division of Taft Broadcasting Company}}” next to a small Taft logo in {{Font color|darkblue|dark blue}} text on the bottom. | <u>Later Variant:</u> There’s another version from 1968 featuring nearly the same starting animation, with the rectangles moving the directions they’re supposed to extend instead of stretching before they actually do, but when the black zooming “'''HB'''” disappears (it doesn't move off its path), it cuts to a {{Font color|red|red}} “'''{{Font color|red|HB}}'''” with the text already on it in {{Font color|blue|blue}}, with the small “a” box being {{Font color|darkblue|dark blue}} and the letter in {{Font color|gold|yellow}}.

The “a" in the '''HB''' box is on top of a {{Font color|blue|denim blue}} box with an {{Font color|orange|orange}} outline. | ||
