SCHEDULED EDIT: Starting today, after I uploaded a lots of Paramount's finds, we're going to a large-scale logos of two little three Golden Age of Hollywood with fictionals ones (Columbia Pictures & Universal Pictures) in an same answer to ‪@JeremyVicharraCurinaupa2‬ WB-related channel like with Paramount uploads. Columbia was originally founded on June 19, 1918 as Cohn-Brandt-Cohn Film Sales by Harry Cohn, his brother Jack, and Jack's friend Joe Brandt. Brandt was initially president, handling sales, marketing and distribution from New York along with Jack Cohn, while Harry Cohn ran production in Hollywood. Many of the studio's early productions were low-budget affairs; the start-up CBC leased space in a poverty row studio on Hollywood's famously low-rent Gower Street. Among Hollywood's elite, CBC's small-time reputation led some to joke that the name stood for "Corned Beef and Cabbage". On January 10, 1924, CBC was reincorporated as Columbia Pictures Corporation. The studio's product line at the time consisted mostly of moderately budgeted features and a short-subject program of comedies, serials, cartoons, and sports films. Columbia gradually moved into the production of higher-budget fare, building a reputation as one of Hollywood's more important studios. Universal City Studios LLC (doing business as Universal Pictures) is an American film studio owned by Universal Studios, Inc., a division of NBCUniversal, itself owned by Comcast. It is also the oldest-running American film studio, having originally been founded on April 30, 1912 as the Universal Film Manufacturing Company by Carl Laemmle, a German-Jewish immigrant who settled in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. It was formed from a merger of several film companies: Independent Moving Pictures (IMP), the Powers Motion Picture Company, the Rex Motion Picture Manufacturing Company, the Champion Film Company, the Nestor Film Company, and the New York Motion Picture Company. On March 15, 1915, Laemmle opened Universal City Studios, the world's largest motion picture production facility. In 1923, the company was renamed Universal Pictures Corporation. On October 1, 1946, Universal merged with International Pictures to form Universal-International Pictures. International Pictures heads Leo Spitz and William Goetz took control of the studio, while Nate Blumberg and J. Cheever Cowdin remained at the helm of Universal Pictures, the parent company. Universal-International underwent significant expansion with Goetz at the helm. A major move was taking on the U.S. distribution of J. Arthur Rank's UK productions, including acclaimed films like David Lean's Great Expectations and Laurence Olivier's Hamlet.
