This career-spanning retrospective of rare and previously unreleased material from the late Tom Petty arrives on Reprise Records.  The aptly-titled An American Treasure will be the first posthumous collection of Petty material, and it should prove a vital reminder of the power of Petty's art.  The box set, assembled by Petty's wife Dana, daughter Adria, Heartbreakers Mike Campbell and Benmont Tench, and producer Ryan Ulyate, will feature never-before-heard studio recordings as well as live material, deep cuts, and alternate takes of Petty classics.  It spans the period of 1974-2016, and draws upon his recordings with Mudcrutch, the Heartbreakers, and his solo catalogue.  It's available in the following formats:

• The 4CD set will be available in standard and super deluxe editions. The latter version, available exclusively through Petty's web store, expands the book from 52 to 84 pages (presented in hardcover) and adds more photos and an exclusive essay by Nicholas Dawidoff. Additionally, the super deluxe package features a lithograph of the cover, reproductions of four of Petty's handwritten lyrics to songs in the box and a certificate of authenticity.
• A 6LP vinyl version includes all the contents of the standard box plus Dawidoff's essay in a 48-page booklet. It's available November 23.
• A 2CD edition includes 26 of the box's tracks plus Bud Scoppa's track-by-track commentary.
