It seems all RKO releases open with a transmission tower sitting upon the revolving globe. However, some say simply "A Radio Picture" while others say "An RKO Radio Picture." Can someone explain the disparity? Thanks as always...

Radio Pictures was the film production and distribution segment of RKO, which was in turn owned mostly by RCA. At some point (I'm not sure when) the parent company's name was added to the logo.
