Where to get the ORIGINAL IWD without expansion?

I'm wondering, is it possible to find the (very) original game without the expansions? The one with the graphics engine and sprites from the original Baldur's Gate 1. Ofc No EE, the ORIGINALS. When they added the expansion (Heart of Winter), the characters' appearance changed to that of Baldur's Gate 2 (a huge mistake), and I'd like to know where I can find the base game without expansions to play it with the original look.

    No, they have a non-EE version, but it comes with the expansions, not separately... I think you can get the original 'look' with mods, but I don't like using mods 🙃, I'd prefer to be able to play the real original.

    I still have the original installation disks in a box in the garage. Other than seeing if someone is selling them online somewhere, the original, before-there-was-an-EE version of the game is not available. You probably can't even find the disks in resale shops or Half Price Books.
