1st Logo (July 17, 1953)

Logo: We see an ancient lamp inside a circular emblem outline being illuminated by several lightning strikes. When there are no more lightning strikes, we see three flames over the lamp (turned up). After that, the camera moves down to show us a rectangle with "NATIONAL ARTS" written inside. Then, the camera zooms very slowly to the lamp.

Closing variant: The camera zooms out slowly from the lamp with a male announcer heard in the variant.

2nd Logo (October 21, 1955-1974)

Logo: We see some sort of statue surrounded by flowers, with a couple candles on each side of it. The camera then zooms out to reveal two religiously-dressed women on a table around what appears to be food and a religiously dressed man waving another candle in front of the women three times before placing it down on the table to pray. The name of the company does not appear.

Technique: Live action.

Music/Sounds: A male singing, and then speaking fast and a chorus of males speaking three times, and some bells ringing.
