I have all three albums and I could feasibly do lossless (WAV) transfers of all them and create WAV & FLAC sets for trading. I could even create 24 bit 96 kHz high-resolution versions and create DVD-A/V versions.

My 'Story of Star Wars' LP has not even been played yet - I have an absolutely mint copy. (I also had the box set of the cassette version so played that instead - to death, in fact. By the end of the 80s it had stretched so much that it was probably twice its original length!)

My Adventures of Luke Skywalker (Story of Empire LP) seems to be very clean. I bought it 2nd hand, but it's in excellent condition. Again, the version I  played at the time was the cassette release.

But I played my Return of the Jedi LP a LOT back in the 80s (no cassette!) so it would potentially need some attention in terms of pop/crackle removal.

But I guess if I went to all the effort of doing this I may as well create my own releases because I'm also a professional designer who has created a lot of CD and DVD art in the past. In fact, if memory serves, I actually started a full hi-res reconstruction of the 'Story of Star Wars' vinyl art and booklet a while back...
