'''Logo:''' | |||
* On a black background, we see the sun with the capital "G" wiping in counterclockwise and larger copies of the sun expand behind it. "UN FILM DE LA SOCIETE NOUVELLE DES ETABLISSEMENTS" wipes in within an arc and are superimposed over the top of the larger sun copies. The "G" within the cloud gets traced and that copy moves towards the bottom left of the largest sun with it wiping further to reveal "GAUMONT" underneath. | |||
* On a superimposed background, we see a white sun with a capital "G" in the middle, and ring around the sun, zooming in. | |||
'''Variants:''' | |||
*On a black background, the sun is colored grey, and "G" is slightly bigger. The text "UN FILM" appears above the sun, and the text "GAUMONT" is below the sun. Above the "G", is a text saying "DIRÉCTEUR DE LA PRODUCTION" Inside the sun, there is a rectangle with a text saying "René G. VUATTOUX". | |||

'''Logo:''' We see a revolving globe surrounded by a sun. A filmstrip surrounds the globe, and "GAUMONT" is wiped on it. Afterwards, "Distribution" wipes in below the filmstrip in script. At the bottom right, "présente" appears in script. | '''Logo:''' We see a revolving globe surrounded by a sun. A filmstrip surrounds the globe, and "GAUMONT" is wiped on it.

'''Trivia:''' The logo is a combination of the globe from the logo of [[Compagnie Parisienne de Location de Films (France)|Compagnie Parisienne de Location de Films]] (C.P.L.F., which was folded into Gaumont) and the sun daisy from the previous logo. | |||
