Warner Bros. Pictures/On-screen Logos

1948–1967, 1984–2001
The logo first appeared on Key Largo and it was used until 1967. It was brought back in the 1984 comedy horror film Gremlins. When the movie was made, director Joe Dante knew that it was going to have the classical feel of the classic Warner Bros. movies because of them shooting on the Warner lot and that Jerry Goldsmith was doing the music. So, they decided to bring back the shield logo and the studio loved it and they brought it back for their future movies until it was discontinued again in 2001. This is the most famous "Classic Logo" of the company.

The design became so iconic that other Warner Bros. division used the same style in their logos and it was also used in the famous "Water Tower" from Warner Bros. Studios for decades until 2019.
