Thanks to a magical invention known as "Test Mode", I'm able to effectively force my LaserDisc player to start playing behind the start marker for the disc, allowing me to access the full MCA DiscoVision logo on any disc that has it.

The benefit of that is that I can capture the logo in full on a disc that has less rot, such as this one, thus getting probably one of the highest quality captures of the full intro available.

From the MCA DiscoVision release of "Nighthawks".

fair use now im gonna discodance to discovision

BTW: If you're wondering "where is the spiral"? This disc, being a later DiscoVision disc, has the MCA VideoDisc "zooming numbers" side bumpers, so it simply didn't have the spiral bumper at all.
