This article is about the Australian public broadcaster that was founded in June 23, 1929 and established in July 1, 1932. For the Television channel that was launched in November 5, 1956, see ABC (Australian TV channel) .
Australian Broadcasting Co.
1929-1932
The "Australian Broadcasting Co." was founded in June 23, 1929, right before The Blue Network was changed to the U.S. version of ABC: The "American Broadcasting Company".
Australian Broadcasting Commission
1932-1983
The Australian Broadcasting Commission was also founded in July 1, 1932. However, the ABC's squiggle logo was never used until 1965.
1965–1975
In 1965, ABC graphics designer Bill Kennard, who had been experimenting with telerecording of the cathode ray oscilloscope displays, submitted a design which was part of the waveform from an oscilloscope.
The letters "ABC" were added to the design and it was adopted as the ABC's official logo. Kennard was presented with £25 for his design.
Australian Broadcasting Corporation
1975–present
Since its original introduction in 1965, it has been updated several times, including with the introduction of colour television in 1975. The line was thickened to feature colour in the logo.
The 1975 logo is the longest-running logo, with a lifespan of 27 years.
In 2001, ABC's new logo was repainted by Annette Harcus. In this logo, the squiggle now has a 3D silver texture while keeping the "over and under" design of the logo since 1975.
