LLL recently gave us the remastered reissue twofer of Waxman's Peyton Place & Hemingway's Adventures of a Young Man. They have also at various times hinted strongly that they are working on expanded versions of Newman's Diary of Anne Frank and Waxman's Sayonara and The Spirit of St. Louis. And in either the LLL news thread or Ask MV thread, MV has even explicitly stated that LLL is working on Steiner and Korngold!
MV has made it clear on multiple occasions that LLL will never have the percentage of Golden Age releases that Intrada or Kritzerland have, because with certain exceptions his own taste leans later, but that by no means indicates that LLL is ignoring older scores altogether, so I am somewhat puzzled by the tone of your post.

Yes, Yavar, La-La Land has been issuing CD versions of old RCA LP albums, such as The Bad Seed, but their release on Waxman's Peyton & Hemingway wasn't any 'anniversary' edition ... plus those titles weren't offered during the Black Friday extravaganza.
My post comments on how La-La Land plans (years ahead, no doubt) for specific items to be released at Black Friday and that these tend to be anniversary editions to cash-in on the nostalgia on certain age-groups/generations who remember when such movies were shown 'new'.
As a generation X-er, I was 10 years old when Close Encounters was released during 1977.
As decades roll onwards, there will be less and less people alive who were also around to remember when The Spirit of St. Louis was shown in 1957 - so most likely there will be no 60th or 70th anniversary editions on vintage items.

I told myself I would only order Apocalypse Now. I was wrong.
I had to grab Close Encounters and Die Another Day as well.
Die Another Day sounds amazing! Side that with it could lead to more Bond releases, so thank you for doing your part!

I'll say this, whenever we plan our Black Friday titles we rarely ever hit our mark. One year we actually had HOOK and STAR TREK TMP scheduled for Black Friday!
Die Another Day and Titanic were actually scheduled for BF this year when I drew up our schedule last year at this time. Surprisingly those hit the mark. CEOT3K was scheduled for Sept and Apoc Now October. Dr Dolittle, when we saw that it was happening, was moved to BF about half way through the year. BTW, wouldn't Dolittle be considered a Golden Age release?

I saw boxes of third party orders getting packed the other day.
I've never been clear on the dividing line between Golden and Silver ages. Is it stylistic or calendar based? I may have have once heard 1965 as the end of the Golden age, which would indeed put Dolittle into the Silver age based on that.

I suspect not since it's 1967. There were still some Golden Age composers working that late without changing their style, so I guess one could call some of those works "Golden Age" -- there was a gradual transition but once Bond came on the scene, among other things...
On the other hand, nobody could argue that Tiomkin's Giant wasn't a Golden Age release, and that was a Black Friday title just in 2015.
