Odds: Scratched--
If you took the trouble to read today's Digital Bits, you'd find out
that George Wasn't Kidding when he said "The prints were
destroyed"...They WERE.
Which, presumably, is *why* we're getting the port-dumped laserdisk
pre-Special Edition transfers from ten years ago--There t'warn't nothing
else in the vault.
Or, if you choose, check out the USA Today interview with a Lucas exec
who's clearly not happy about it either, but Gone is Gone.

it into my set)
