The new edition was designed by Sufjan himself: the 40-page booklet contains various collages of vintage family photos spanning four generations interfused with artwork and drawings (on themes of death, dying, grief and the state of Oregon) as well as landscape photos Sufjan took while travelling across the western U.S. over a decade ago.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe original album is preserved on one disc, while disc two contains 40 minutes of extras, including demo versions of \"Death With Dignity,\" \"Should Have Known Better,\" \"The Only Thing,\" and \"Eugene\".
