*This logo made its official debut with ''The Robe'' (released on September 16, 1953), the first motion picture filmed in CinemaScope. It allegedly made its final official appearance on ''Wall Street'' (released on December 11, 1987), but it remains unknown if it actually appeared on originally theatrical prints; all current prints of the film replace it with the 4th logo. Nonetheless, this logo is still retained on most Fox releases from this period. | *This logo made its official debut with ''The Robe'' (released on September 16, 1953), the first motion picture filmed in CinemaScope.
