(1945-1951)
Nicknames: "Ursa Major Shield" "The Constellation", "The Big Dipper", "The Shield", "Fincine Shield", The Filmstrips and Shield, "Scary Italian Logo Shield", "Cocinor's Big Brother"
Logo: On a space background with twinkling stars, we see 7 medium-sized stars that form the Big Dipper asterism of the Ursa Major constellation. The 7 stars glow one by one and we later see a curved, filmstrip-like ribbon with a shield in the middle with the word "Fincine" on the ribbon in script font fading in. After all the stars have finished glowing inside the shield, we see the word "presenta" in another script font fading in below.
FX/SFX: The shining and the fading.
Editor's Note: The eerie theme, along with the theremin mixed with the dark background could cause some major scares and chills and also can make people off guard, but the animation and orchestra theme is sort of relaxing, if you don't care about that very loud theremin melody.

Music/Sounds: Some eerie theremin notes plays with a piano portion and then an orchestral theme, with more of the theremin note's hearing at the end.
Availability: If you find an old (for instance) Vestron Video International PAL tape from Italy, it might have this logo on it. Might turn up on TCM or AMC from time to time, too. However, it can be found on <a href="https://youtu.be/pl4JPMwFaHM?t=21" target="_self">Luci del varietà</a>, on YouTube.
