Availability: Very rare. So far, it has been spotted on _He Who Gets Slapped, _ _Confessions of a Queen, _ _The Unholy Three_ (1925), _The Circle_ and _Battling Butler, _ but other MGM films have Slats replaced by Jackie.

Availability: Very rare. This was used as an endcap on very early MGM-era movies like _He Who Gets Slapped_ and also as an opening logo, like on _Greed._
