CBS Logo History

REQUEST BOX:    • REQUEST BOX!  

Yet another video that I am extremely proud of! Inspired by @TR3XProductions1stChannel and @CP1973_Productions

Note: The CBS Television Network logo from 1952-68 is not included in this video, because that was used as a closing logo for CBS Productions, not a national ident. I might do a logo history on CBS Productions in the future.

CBS is an American commercial broadcast television and radio network. It is the flagship property of the CBS Entertainment Group division of Paramount Global. They were first introduced to radio in 1927 as the United Independent Broadcasters, and they changed their names over the years. From the 1930s, they were experimenting with television, where they opened an experimental station in New York City called W2XAB. This was relaunched as WCBS-TV on 1st July 1941, and more CBS television stations followed afterward. The earliest known idents from CBS date from 1947.

My next logo history will be on BBC One.
