“t a sealed, mint-condition “Star Wars” VHS tape from 1977”

I’m kinda skeptical that Star Wars was out on VHS in ‘77. Maybe my memory is off, but I remember it still playing in theaters well into ‘78.

Me too. According to this fan site, star wars wasn’t even released on tape until 1982

1977 must have been the copyright date on the content, not the release date of the VHS tape.

It’s sloppy reporting by Fox or a sloppy description by the auction house.
