The Hello Dolly one is still in its shrink wrap though it's ripped in several places.

The oldest recordable video tapes I have are a Zenith Betamax cassette and Panasonic VHS cassette whose sleeve graphics suggest very early 80s to me, though I'm not sure when they were made. Still cool though.

And the oldest audio tapes I have are two Memorex recordable 8-track cartridges that are still in their shrink wrap with Musicland price tags.
I've got Zenith's first Betamax deck, that tape would go good with it.
