Heres is a little trivia. !
The first time Star Wars was available for Purchases was 1982. This was for all three of the media sources of the Time VHS- BETAMAX and VIDEO DISC. It was not cheap a copy would set you back near $100 bucks.
For those not old enough to remember you could Rent a VHS or laser disc player and a movie and watch it at home, ahh those college parties. but I digress..
Here is the CED Viedo Disc of Star Wars from 1982. There are several Variations of the Disc. All contain the original Theatrical release from 1977 . Got to say great graphics and the classic Logo !
Reportedly Disney is going to bring back the original version -. I don’t mind the Special Edition version, it does help with continuity of the prequels, but hey.. don’t want to start a fight.
