- Since they like the NET/PBS logos, I decided to update the NET/PBS History. Includes rare versions. All Credit and Video Courtesy of PTVhistoryproject, Joe B, NETNetwork, JohnnyL80, mcydodge919, MegaMoneyMan99, among others. I do not own anything. Enjoy!
The 1989 ID is my favorite. It reminds me of my childhood so much, seeing it after “Sesame Street,” “Mister Rogers,” “Reading Rainbow,” among others. There’s just something about it that brings nostalgia.
mine is 1984.
play with your friend i
I always was a bit scared of the 70's PBS sign after Sesame Street, Mr. Rogers, and The ORIGINAL Electric Company, but that was what I remember watching PBS as a kid
I Am Not Scared Of That
3:52 the voice over was done by local Washington, DC area announcer Paul Anthony, who also once hosted a Saturday Night Jazz show on Classical WGMS.
This is the best quality on TH-cam of PBS history. Thanks so much :)
I love these old logo makes me feel so damn happy and peaceful ^_^
Old logos always creep me out--especially when I watch them in the dark. ^_^

0:14 The jingle from the NET flame logo was sampled for most of Luke Vibert's song "Porn Shirtwee."
The more you know!
You forgot one. There was one that showed studio lights and stuff in the background and as they faded they looked like the P-head. I remember that logo. It was extremely rare.
Bring back the PBS nostalgia shows I love! Please?
Fun Fact the PBS 1998 and 2004 logos would show your local PBS Station's call letters and local affiliate name rather than a generic logo. for example it would say....Your watching PBS KVIE 6 Sacramento Stockton Modesto as the generic logo gets plastered over.
It's found at the end of an episode of Black Journal back in 1968. This was shown right after the NET house logo, but it was in colour.
"This is net the national educational television network circa october-1966 now that's television for you".
3:50 Wow, I remember this perfectly. I know that's from 1989, but I remember it from 1994-1995. The other ones I remember are 4:22 - 5:06. That's it.

I tried to make this list starting last night and now I continued. I see the list from you and now I deleted it. You have to add the year in!!!!!!
I remember "Mister Rogers Neighborhood" and "Sesame Street" was on PBS.
The logos were kinda eerie back in the days😨😨😨😨😨😰😰😓😰
The Announcer Does Sound Like My Dentist Dr.Brian Kerr.The Announcer.
There is another [rare] 1996-1998 windowsill logo. It plays 3 piano notes as a male announcer says, "This is PBS." It could be heard on some episodes of Julia Child's programs.
1:35 scared me
Yes, the silence and the font.
1:35 I heard the NET logo of the music last note very carefully at the beginning of the silence and the font. :)
I miss the old pbs logos
4:00 ahhh ahhhh ahhh ahhh ahh.. (1993)
I remember a few of them, lol, its the only think I watched until I was like 7
I miss pbs so much
daminmancejin It's still there. This Old House is still airing too.
daminmancejin, PBS is here
3:18 reminds me of a '90s computer sound?
+Sebizzar Exactly what I was thinking.
Either that or 2:55
That is the 1984 logo
I know this is an old comment but the sound is similar to the Windows 2000 Startup sound.
@@volvoguy804 Yes that must be it! Thank you :)
Who Is Then The PBS Announcer.
Nice Station.
Now look at this net
That I just found
When I say go
Be ready to throw
And go!
Perfect! Let's make PBS! >:)
It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone. It's gone.
The PBS logo is also from Basil Hears A Noise on vhs in 1997
So, in a nutshell, the NET in the beginning has boards which are based on a reversed Romanian flag.
Where the blue blazes do you or anyone else find these intros/logos?! Seriously, this is amazing!
I came across the very rare color NET Logo (with words) when I watched a 1968 episode of "Black Journal" here on TH-cam. It was posted from someone in the UK, who got a copy from the Library of Congress (I think). I informed NETNetwork, and he was able to post them here on TH-cam. youngleader610 then got the footage from him. I found the second "NET Carpet Logo ID" on a 1962 documentary about computers that was made by KQED San Francisco, California, and was posted at, I think, the DailyMotion web site (which is a Canadian-based competitor with TH-cam). I told NETNetwork about it, and he posted that ID video footage on TH-cam. Finally, I came across a multi-part series on an Indian Philosopher that aired on NET in 1966 here on TH-cam (with Spanish language subtitles added to the original footage). It had a different kind of black-and-white NET House Logo ID, with white shaded words, instead of dark shaded ones seen on the black-and-white videotapes of "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" from 1968. Once again, I told NETNetwork about them, and he posted the footage on TH-cam as well.
3:08 I’m still not in a logo community, but is there an original video
hail to see and it looks great for to talk about it again to see and loved them go to Phoenix school and I am do! HPLOC kids
That's Super Mario 4:28
You're right! This was actually created by, and for, Saturday Night Live.
IT IS GONE! IT IS GONE! IT IS GONE! IT IS GONE! IT IS GONE! 3:38
I was born in 1996 so I dont know the 80s logos
When I was small, I was scared from the 4:23
I thought it was very creepy
my fav is the P and split 3d glass
I definitely agree!
This is net
National educational television network
old time logos looked so eerie🤔🤔😹🤔🤔😂
3:39 LOL
You missed some, like NET idents from the 1950/1940’s.
I haven't heard of NET before... :'(
NET was started up in 1952 as a clearing house for educational films to be aired by university-owned/operated television stations. In the late-1950s, The Ford Foundation provided a major source of funding, and the organization decided to form a separate television network. But by the time The Ford Foundation renewed their funding for NET, they (NET) were limited by how they could grow the network, by how they could take advantage of the changing technology of videotaped programming, and live "via satellite" programming, and by how they could obtain additional funding. NET was deep in debt, and the Ford Foundation was going to cut back greatly on their funding for the network by the early-1970s. NET ended up going to the US House and US Senate for funding. They were reluctant to fund NET, but President Johnson saw a future for public broadcasting. President Johnson was able to cut a deal with the US House and US Senate to create the Corporation For Public Broadcasting (CFB) in 1967. When President Nixon was elected, he did not like the documentaries that aired on NET that made the US Government look bad. He established PBS in 1969 to compete with NET, and to "keep NET in line politically", with the threat of being shut down in favor of PBS. NET management did not listen. In 1970, NET aired a documentary about the deceptive business practices of large US banks, and President Nixon essentially shut NET down by the Fall of that year.
PBS was born out of NET. PBS was essentially a name change from National Educational Television to Public Broadcasting Service beginning in 1970.
juliajuliagenevieve From what I have read on the Internet, there was a two-year period, in 1969 and 1970, when NET and PBS ran parallel with one another, and both funded by the Corporation For Public Broadcasting. Nixon was responsible for phasing out NET, because he did not like their programming content. The way PBS was set up, the Federal Government had more control over the programming content that was broadcast on the network.
Larry Ressler
Hi Larry, yes you are correct about what you have read. You will see a multicolor PBS logo that just reads "" Public Broadcasting Service"" in the same three primary colors that the NET logo was using at the same time. This was the phase out period. You are also correct concerning Nixon's views on funding a national network. Good comment Larry. :O)
Net was what started PBS. That was the original channel name but then it got changed to PBS
the jingle for the glass 3d logo almost sounds like the NBC chime
2:18 Sesame Street !!!
0:15 is the most bizarre logo ever. NET Globe from 1966.
one of the best
what does NET MEAN??😕😕

@S.V. Saul Vazquez I know, I was joking
3:40 "Tampon"?
and on,Not Tampon
It's actually "And on, and on, and on, and on..."
My favorite ones are the tri-colored, windowsill and circle p-heads (1998) ones.
A few things i wondered about the 1998 ident: what was the circle p-head made of? I'd like to think maybe balsa wood? Also, there was information provided a while back about where this ident was shot and the studio that made it, but it's lost now. Does anyone know?
I thought it was plastic
The 1971 PBS logo is my favorite
no
+bad word not on axicent in perious Don't judge me.

The first two logos actually started being used in 1959, not 1952.
3:39 *_AND ON_*
Is that "and on and on" logo in the 1984 section official?
Not exactly. It comes from an episode of "Square One TV." It was only used when that particular episode aired, it carries on from a sketch that featured on the show.
Analog Child I didn't think it was. Thanks for clearing that up.
No problem!
Net come back because PBS kids is now having horable shows 😒
What's a voice over?

Um Idk I think my brothers prencilpal when he was 20
I saw it in this episode (not sure which one): /watch?v=Y7g9ROouhpQ
And I looked up some other episodes of the series, and they didn't show both NET logos at the end.
This is a only thing i gotta tell you guys NET/PBS is not scary
3:39 oh crap
TAKE ON
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Who is that educated fartso announcing the NET bumper?
I cannot remember his name, but he did the voiceover work for "The Lone Ranger" on ABC in the late-1940s and early 1950s.
Larry Ressler Fred Foy was his name.

Logo history:PBS
I really don't know why the 0:14 logo looks so familiar, and I live in Israel.
+Gal Mordechai The first two NET "Carpet" logos are the same. The only difference is in the announcers for the network IDs. In the December, 1963 episodes of the 3-part NET miniseries, "The Fuller World" (starring Buckminster Fuller, an architect and futurist), they feature the only NET "Carpet" logos seen on a videotaped program, and feature a third announcer for the network ID. This gives me the impression, that NET gave the network affiliates the responsibility for doing the voiceovers for their own programming made for broadcasting by the network. If the production was filmed and/or kinescoped for network affiliates to broadcast at their discretion/leisure, NET would provide them with stock footage of the NET "Carpet" logo, and the NET station would use one of their employees to do the voiceover work for the network ID.
same
