There was a short window of time where Nipper was used on the front panel of RCA equipment in conjunction with the RCA block letter logo...seems like just from 79 or 80 till 83 or so...Nipper was removed due to some copyright dispute due to the complicated copyright issues surrounding this trademark.
There was also similar copyright issues surrounding the trademark "Columbia" records...when Columbia records were exported, they had to be called "CBS" records as there are different owners of the "Columbia" trademark in different countries...I believe Denon is the Japanese Columbia licensee.
