Wikipedia has this image of a Microsoft-branded 1.3 disk:

Of course, since it's Wikipedia, it's probably actually just a photoshopped image

Sam,
I believe the IBM-Microsoft collaboration lasted thru 1.1. Not sure about
1.2 or 1.3. Version 2.0 and later were pure IBM, although any legacy code
from the earlier versions had a joint copyright. Gee, that copyright should
have expired now - it been 20+ years...
1.2 was the last truly jointly developed version, but 1.3 was the last
jointly-SOLD version (basically all of the new features 1.3 had over
12 were IBM-developed, but MS happily kept selling until they could
get NT out the door.
