The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) is a non-profit corporation created by the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967, signed into law by U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson on November 7 of that year. It was created to provide partial federal funding for public broadcasting, initially collaborating with National Educational Television (NET) stations before starting their own private non-profit networks, Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) for television and National Public Radio (NPR) for radio.
For a list of how its logos specifically appeared on CPB-funded programs, see this page.
1st logo\r (1967-1970s)
Logo: On a gray background we see an abstract design - the lowercase letters "c," "p" and "b" stacked together like a mixed up jigsaw puzzle - and the text "Corporation for Public Broadcasting" written below in a serif font. Effects: None. Music/Sounds: None. However, there is a voiceover that says, "Nationwide distribution of the preceding program is a service of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting." Availability: Very rare. Can be found at the end of a 1970 episode of Firing Line, available to view at the Paley Center in New York and Los Angeles. It was also known to be seen on a 1969 episode of Black Journal. Editor's Note: The logo's abstract design is a throwback to mid-century abstract graphics.
2nd logo\r (1967-August 31, 2001)
Logo: Just the company name. There are many font, color, and ALL CAPS variations, a growing list of which can be found here. Variations: •On Mister Rogers' Neighborhood episodes from 1993-2001, the byline "A private corporation funded by the American people" (more commonly seen with the 6th logo and beyond) is added. •WNET-produced programs from between 1978 and 1983 will have this in the WNET logo's font at the start (and oftentimes also at the end). Effects: None. Music/Sounds/Voiceover: The text has no music of its own, but on several shows of the era it plays over the opening and closing themes. There are at least three voice-over variations: •"[PROGRAM NAME] is made possible by funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting." •"Additional funding provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting." •"Funding for this series was also provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting." Music/Sounds Variants: •On Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, the logo is silent, and a male announcer would say the following: The people who give the money to make Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, are the people... •...of this and other public television stations, and the Sears-Roebuck Foundation. (This and the next three are used in reruns of earlier episode.) •...who contribute to this and other public television stations... •...and the Sears-Roebuck Foundation. •...the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and the Sears-Roebuck Foundation. •...and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. •...who contribute to this and other PBS stations, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. We thank you. (This was used in the final two seasons.)
3rd logo\r (September 28, 1981-July 4, 1982)
Nickname: "CPB Curves" Logo: Just a stylized "cpb" with the company name below. Sometimes, "The Program Fund" will appear above the company name. Effects: None. Music/Sounds: Same as the 2nd logo. Availability: Extremely rare. Seen on some Season 9 episodes of Great Performances, including a trilogy of adaptations of works by Edith Wharton, and the first season of American Playhouse.

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting was founded in 1967 by an act of the United States Congress. The second logo was replaced with a simple Bauhaus-inspired wordmark. The third logo consisted of the company's acromym in a serif typeface surrounded by a large circle.
