This page also shows the evolution of the AT&T logo:
http://logos.wikia.com/wiki/AT%26T
The logo in most incarnations of the Troff User's Manual
found on the web appears to be the version from 1983 to 2005
(either the older variant of the death star with more stripes
or the newer one with fewer stripes), but here's a scan of
an older manual that still shows the "bell" logo:

(See page 295 of that document.)
