Two gongmen have starred during this logo's lifespan. From 1944-1957, heavyweight boxer "Bombardier" Billy Wells was the gongman, and from 1957-1997, it was Olympic medalist wrestler Ken Richmond (both pictured below).

If you grew up watching Little House on the Prairie or The Love Boat in the 80s-90s, you might remember this logo with the whoosh and its synthesized jingle. Feel old yet? 😁

While it may seem as CGI at first, the 1993 PBS ident (designed by Telezign) is mostly live-action, captured on 35mm film and later composited on a Quantel Paintbox. It was created with frosted glass models, with the "PBS" text rotated with rostrums.
