Family Man - vinyl single boxed set with prints
 
While going through old storage containers, I found two FM items that I had entirely forgotten about:

Fleetwood Mac - Family Man (Limited Edition Box)
It includes 7" single and two special prints.

Fleetwood Mac - Behind the Mask (Limited Edition Box)
It includes BTM cd, a print of the band, rice paper overlay with song titles.

The packaging for both was nicely done, but clearly manufactured with the fan's wallet in mind.

Here is the artwork.

I accidentally cropped the boarder from the last one.

What a nice discovery after all this time. They should have had Christine draw something for them.

That BTM picture . . . Why do they all look so short? Some of them are sitting down, but even the ones standing look like they are on their knees or something.

Thanks for posting the prints from the Family Man set. I had always wanted to see these. I bought the Behind the Mask box set and I felt so ripped off at the time. Way over priced for what it offered. I opened it in the record store, one of the managers wanted to see what was inside. He offered me my money back! I guess he felt the same way about it.

I bought the Behind the Mask boxed set as well and I agree with you.
Basically, a couple pieces of nice paper and the CD packed in a small cardboard box somehow justified in a ridiculously inflated price. I had to buy it to find out what it consisted of. I remember cursing the entire music industry that day, so let me take this opportunity to apologize for possibly igniting this illegal downloading thing that has crippled the industry. No, actually, I don't take it back. I forgot about the steady introduction of new formats that force us to buy the same album over and over and over again.

Did anyone ever figure out what sorts of graphics were available on the CD-ROM version of BEHIND THE MASK? It couldn't have been heart-stoppingly interesting. :cool:

Golddust, so it was you who started this whole illegal downloading that's killing the music industry! David, I read somewhere that you can see the graphics on the BTM CD by using a karaoke machine. The CD-G players didn't go over and died a quick death.
