Revision as of 13:27, 19 February 2024

I own three VHS releases from Paramount Home Entertainment (formerly known as Paramount Home Video). They are:

- the 1996 VHS release of "Top Gun" (1986). My copy had a strip label on the cassette spine, but I peeled it off to get to the number that's printed in dark ink (said number says 59). Printed/pressed during the 36th week of 1996 (PAR 636)

- the 1997 VHS release of "Rugrats: A Rugrats Vacation" (released under the Nickelodeon video line). Mine was packaged in the original 1997 cover. Cassette shell and tape guard are Nickelodeon-style orange, but the release button is black. My copy had a strip label on the cassette spine, but I peeled it off to get to the number that's printed in dark ink (said number says 86). Printed/pressed during the 26th week of 1997 (PAR 726); duplicated in EP/SLP mode. White screen test pattern with 1000hz sine-wave tone at the end.

- the 1997 VHS release of "It's Christmastime Again, Charlie Brown" (1992) (released under the Peanuts Home Video line). Mine was still packaged in the 1996 cover. Tape itself uses the 1999 horizontal sticker label on the front of the cassette shell. Dark ink number on the cassette spine says 58. Printed/pressed during the 37th week of 1999 (DLX 937). Strangely, this tape had the 1989 distorted version of the 1987 Paramount Television fanfare played over the 1995 Paramount closing logo at the end.
