Help: looking for... Preservations of the 80s HBO and NBC TESB broadcasts?

I had a look through the forum using Google and the search terms, “HBO”, “NBC” and “empire” but nothing came up. Is there any interest in preserving these, especially since the 87’ NBC airing featured a special intro by James Earl Jones? Does anyone know if they are from the same master used for the time compressed 1985 Pan and Scan CAV LD?
