RARE Paramount Television Productions Inc. large metal sign; c. 1950s; 32" x 30"Porcelain/metal sign from Paramount's short-lived television production company, which lasted from 1950 to 1959, ending with a controversial takeover of the DuMont network that aired its programming. The blue and white sign reads 'Paramount Television Productions Inc. A Subsidiary of Paramount Pictures Corporation' with the iconic Paramount logo in the background. This sign most likely hung in the Paramount studios parking lot, the back of the sign has the hand written notes 'Paramount - B/02 (Recording Unit) - R. H. Side'. The single sided, porcelain finished sign measures 32" x 30" with 10 metal ringed holes around the edges for hanging. The only similar signs I've come across are much smaller making this sign very rare as these generally did not make it out of the studio. Sign is in very good condition overall, there is some light wear and minor chipping along the edges and around a couple of the metal rings.
