They did release the original, "unaltered" films on DVD somewhere back around 2002 or 2004 (IIRC), but only as a very limited edition. I believe the prints were also not in fantastic shape, but certainly watchable.

If there is a new, remastered pristine film print of OG ANH doing the rounds, you'd assume they wouldn't have gone to that trouble - and by all reports it would have been considerable, since the original prints were altered in the creation of the Special Edition and they'd have to "unadjust" them - if they weren't going to do something more with them.

ETA: Oh wait, that's the master film cuts. Yeah, they could just take one of the several thousand 1981 prints and just clean it up really carefully and it'd be fine, which would be a lot easier.
