1st Logo (April 24, 1989-1996)
Visuals: On a black background, there is the copyright year in Roman numerals, with "The Walt Disney Company" (with "Walt Disney" in its corporate font) below it. "All Rights Reserved" is seen below everything.
Technique: A still digital graphic.
Audio: None or the ending theme.

2nd Logo (October 1, 1991-June 15, 1997)
Visuals: On a studio room, there is a white piece of paper. Mickey Mouse later comes in with a paintbrush and some purple paint and proceeds to draw the 1985 Disney castle symbol, with the words, The Walt Disney Company (in its 1986 corporate font) in red and the word "Presents" at the bottom. Mickey later draws the castle arch before zooming in.
Variant: During the intro to The Wonderful World of Disney, the word "presents" is absent.
Technique: A mix of live-action footage with traditional animation.
Audio: A rendition of "When You Wish Upon a Star".
