United Artists' Early VHS Releases (1980)

In late 1980, prior to the VHS/Beta/Laserdisc Magnetic Video releases and RCA CED releases, United Artists licensed 20 titles from their film library for home video release and several of them were issued in the UK on a small label called Intervision Video , and in the USA on another small label called VidAmerica. However, they soon went out of print after UA signed the deals with Magnetic Video (later known as 20th Century-Fox Video and CBS/Fox Video, now 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment) and RCA in 1981, except for a few Intervision releases, and to this day, most of Intervison's releases and all of the VidAmerica releases of the films licensed by UA never even show up on auction sites like eBay.
