Everywhere I look that says “original triliogy” it’s always the second re-mastering, never the remastering that was released in the 1990s or the original un-remastered versions

    That’s where I’m not sure. According to wikipedia, no. So then yeah, laserdisc would provide the best image for those releases at 425, but a PAL laserdisc would give 440, in contrast to VHSs NTSC resolution of 240. That said, the 90s release was itself a 20th anniversary remaster of the originals, though allegedly there exists a copy for long term preservation that was never released. But, I’d have sworn that the 20th remaster saw a limited release on DVD, but that would again be something to be found on eBay or from a collector if it exists.

      I thought the first Star Wars DVD was the Phantom Menace in 2001, and the original (remastered) trilogy weren’t released on DVD until 2004.
