I had bought a few years back (so this is not a recent acquisition) a VHS Copy of the last release of the original Star Wars Movies before they were remastered (the ones that showed Jaba as being a man in a suit, and that showed who actually shot first in the bar fight scene) which this was from 1995, because 1997 was when they "remastered" the whole video (when they "digitized" Jaba and "edited" the Bar Fight scene.)

While the audio was "Digitally Remastered" (Using their trademark THX Technology) the video is still the original video from 1977-1983 when the original Star Wars Movies came out.

I was shocked when I found it at the Goodwill because after this video set was released they destroyed all of the original video footage after they "remastered" and "digitized" it so basically because of that any major Star Wars fan would be hard pressed to give up their copy of the original unedited version of the original Star Wars movies because basically that's something that you're never going to find ever again, even on DVD or Blu-Ray.
