Does anyone know where one would find ORIGINAL broadcasts of Twin Peaks on ABC?

This is probably going to come off sounding like a strange request, but I'm looking for any way possible to find original (as in, 1990/1991) broadcasts of Twin Peaks episodes on ABC. That means with original "Previously on" and "Next on" promos, as well as original commercial breaks. The reason for this being (other than sheer nostalgia), my mother is quite possibly a bigger Twin Peaks fan than I ever will be (and that's saying something)... She was able to record more than a few back in the day and loved to watch them in reruns. Something about the commercials, the vibe, the feel, all of it was more appealing to her than watching the show on Netflix or Hulu in standard fashion, which I can kind of understand being a late 80s/early 90s kind of aesthetic guy myself.
NOW, her old VHS tapes were sadly sold without her knowing about it, in a church sale by my unknowing grandmother bless her soul, and I'm trying to find a way to surprise my mother in some way by bringing these shows back to her with all that retro vibe she loves so much, and I wouldn't mind seeing some myself!
I don't know how I would go about this, or if there are any even floating around! They could be as infamously hard to find as old Wrapped in Plastic archives (been there done that)... But if anyone knows any information, please comment or message me personally. I used to buy off of DVD traders back in the day, old episodes of various goodies, mainly old MTV and cult movies and what not, but never Twin Peaks. I'm going to assume that no one has original copies of the show, but maybe someone could prove me wrong, eh?
