Background: Selmur Productions was founded in 1961. Today, CBS Television Distribution owns North American rights, while Disney-ABC International Television owns International rights. Selmur Productions was a division of ABC Films.


(1961-1969)
Selmur (Combat!): 1962Selmur (Shindig!) 1965Selmur: 1965-1966Selmur (Shindig!): 1965

Nickname: "Huge S"

Logo: On the closing credits of Combat!, we would see a huge, oddly-designed "S". The text:

PRODUCED BY
SELMUR
PRODUCTIONS
INC.

"SELMUR" and "PRODUCTIONS" appear inside the "S". The entire text is in the same font as the "S".

1962-1963 Season of Combat!: On the first season of Combat!, before the opening, a pre-open would be shown, and the Selmur logo appears during the pre-open. The announcer would say, "Combat! A Selmur Production!". The first season closing credits would have just text, in this format:

SELMUR PRODUCTIONS
In Association With
ABC
TELEVISION NETWORK

Filmed at
METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER STUDIOS

FX: Some shows it's superimposed. On other shows, such as General Hospital, it's the credits scrolling.

Music: The ending theme of the show.

Availability: It was seen on Combat!, so it's an easy find on AmericanLife Television Network. It was also seen on Shindig! and earlier episodes of General Hospital.

Scare Factor: Low.
