*The 25 Years variant was used as a local ID. First, we see "{{color|silver|''A Silver Year''}}" in a script font named "Brush Script" appears during the shooting lights, followed by "{{color|gold|''A Golden Future''}}" in a gold script font, and "{{color|silver|25 Years}}". After "{{color|silver|{{Font|Cooper|39}}}}" continues to flash it, "{{color|silver|25 Years}}" moves to the top left, making room and forming the finished 25 Years logo. This is seen only on a 25 Years Special of WLVT-TV, filmed at WLVT Studios, Allentown, Pennsylvania. |

'''Technique:''' 2D animation. |

'''Technique:''' The light effects, plus the cheap chyron fade-in for the production variant. For the 25 Years variant, the text appearing and the text moving. The fact that the logo was made in 1986 makes it extremely dated for its lifetime. |
