Subject: Retro Network Logos.

As part of the build-up to this May's 50th anniversary celebration of CBS
 television, the network had been running vintage network logos and ID
 spots (as well as the 1964-68 ID used before color programs on more than 
 just "Kids Say The Darndest Things").

Since channel 4 is the local CBS affiliate, and as it's about to also
 celebrate it's 50th birthday (on June 9th), I wonder if we might be seeing
 vintage channel 4 logos used in station ID's over the next few weeks? 

Might we be seeing the famous stylized "4" that graced WBZ-TV station ID's
 for 35 long years (1961-96)? Might we see the squatty "4" that was the
 station's logo around 1960? Might we see the ID logo with the block
 letters "WBZ" and "TV" with a  triangle with a number "4" inside between
 the "WBZ" and "TV" (which was the logo in the late 1950's)? Might we see
 some WBZ-TV ID logos from 1948?

Or, Heaven forbid, might we see the red-white-blue "4" logo that lasted 
 16 months from September, 1996 until this past January?

I also wonder if Channel 4 will run any special programming to celebrate
 it's aniversary either on June 9th itself or sometime that week or month.
 If any of you have heard anything, let all of us know.

Clairification: The ID used by CBS before color programs between 1964 and
 1968 runs regularlly at the start of "Kids Say The Darndest Things". This
 month, it has also occassionally run before the start of othert CBS
 programs.
