It's from the Special Edition VHS releases.

Actually, those were the movie posters for the 1997 re-release/Special Edition release, before they were the VHS covers. I suppose they were originally suppose to be lined up together in movies theaters, but every theater I saw them at only displayed one poster at a time, since they were released a month apart from one another.

Man, I remember how exicted I was back then to see SW in the theater again. Change didn't bother me a bit then, at the time it was merely an alternative and not "the only version". It was the Star Wars Trilogy Special Edition, which lived in harmony beside the real Star Wars Trilogy. It was when they removed the "Special Edition" and tried to pass it off as the originals that I developed a strong dislike for it.
