Releases of Blue Velvet prior to the MGM restorations contain a slight editing difference during the opening sequence:

The old edit is present on the '87 Karl-Lorimar VHS and LD, the '90 Warner VHS, and presumably, in widescreen (2:1, not 2.35:1) on the '91 and '93 Warner LDs.
There are also some slight differences across various releases as to how the flashback shots of Frank/the “Well-Dressed Man” are handled:

I feel these differences are worth cataloging and preserving, and all three domestic LDs are going for dirt cheap on eBay, but alas, I do not own a player and my captures would be lousy in comparison to other individuals’ efforts anyway. There is also a UK DVD of an older master that I have yet to investigate.
So, a new book came out and we learned so much, and it is called, “Anguilosaurus, Killer of the Living”.
