Also, on a short-lived 1983 ABC medical series called Ryan's Four w/Tom Skerritt, Fair Dinkum is credited as "Fair Dinkum, Inc." with Groverton Productions (production outfit of the late David Victor); this card faded out, and then the Paramount tall-peaked Blue Mtn. was seen.

Music/Sounds: A four-note fanfare, or the closing theme. On Unexplained Mysteries, it's silent.

Availability: Seen on movies such as the 1984 PSA Strong Kids, Safe Kids, and on TV shows such as Unexplained Mysteries,So Weird,and Sightings (post 1994 episodes).

Editor's Note: None.
