The original Star Wars had almost no CGI (basically just the stuff displayed on computer screens within the movie). Here's an old featurette on how they did some of the effects: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIlYk7KQe-s

CGI did not exist for another decade. There was no CGI in the Return of the Jedi six years latter.
