Background

Wood Knapp & Co., also known as Wood Knapp Video or simply Wood Knapp, was a home entertainment distributor founded by Betsy Wood Knapp in 1988. The company shut down on December 31, 1995 after declaring bankruptcy in January of the same year.

Logo (1988-1995)

Nickname: "The Rainbow Scribble", "The Scribble"

Logo: On a shady dark-to-pale blue gradient background, we see a rainbow-colored scribble being drawn (think the Black/Marlens logo) which zooms out. After it stops drawing, the platinum words "Wood Knapp" fade in, then "a", above "Wood Knapp", and "production", below it, fade in, making it:

a

Wood Knapp
production

On its closing logo, it reads:

Wood Knapp
Video

Variant: Occasionally, the opening logo's text will read:

Wood Knapp
Video
presents

FX/SFX: CGI animation showing the scribble being drawn and the text fading in.

Music/Sounds: A friendly tune comprised of a saxophone and bells.

Availability: Seen on tapes including Children's Circle (The tape of Corduroy strangely lacks this logo), One Minute Bible Stories with Shari Lewis and Lamb Chop, Wood Knapp releases of fitness VHS tapes, and some United Artists releases.

Editor's Note: Nice animation for the 1980s.
