NBC logo 1954

In January, a xylophone and mallet was shown with a three tone "G E C" tone, as seen in the Video section. The keys refer to the General Electric Company (G, E, C).

NBC 1956 Logo

In 1956, NBC started using a logo for their color programming. The original peacock is a lucky find today. In 1962, they changed the logo. On a kaleidoscopic background, a majestic tune plays, as the NBC peacock fans its feathers and then turns into the logo from before.

1959–1975

NBC snake logo 1959

The chimes were rendered obsolete by 1960 as a new logo, dubbed the "NBC snake", arrived. There are some variants of it but the most famous is the one where it draws itself.

1975–1979

NBC logo 1975

This short-lived abstract N logo made its debut on New Years Day 1976.

1979–1986

NBC 1979 logo

This is shown with or without the stylized "N"; although the version without the "N" was rarely seen after 1980. The network had, by this time, decided to take a new approach in its programming to introduce the slogan, "NBC--Proud As A Peacock!"
