(1927-1935)
Mascot Pictures - CLG Wiki
Nicknames: "That Ripoff of the MGM/Universal Logos", "Tiger '27", "Tiger From Hell"
Logo: On a cloudy background, we see a model of planet Earth, with a tiger on it. Under it, we see the words "MASCOT PICTURES" surrounding the globe. The tiger roars twice (a la Leo the Lion).
FX/SFX: The letters moving. Pretty hi-tech for its time, but it's still cheesy.
Music/Sounds: The tiger roaring.
Availability: Can be seen on Mascot releases from its time. Was restored back in 1988 on the movie The Phantom Empire for TV as a syndication package.
Editor's Note: None.
