==Catalogue reissue and Genesis Publications book== {{quote box|quote= The whole experience was some of the best days of my life, really, and I think it probably was for us all ... The thing I guess would be hardest for people to understand is what good friends we were. It really had very little to do with combining a bunch of famous people. It was a bunch of friends that just happened to be really good at making music.<ref>{{harvnb|Smax|2007}}, event occurs between 22:06 and 22:34.</ref>|source= β Tom Petty in ''The True History of the Traveling Wilburys''|width=25%|align=left|style=padding:8px;}} In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the two Traveling Wilburys albums had limited availability and were [[out of print]] in most areas. Harrison, as primary holder of the rights, did not reissue them before his death. In June 2007, the two albums were reissued as ''[[The Traveling Wilburys Collection]]'', a [[box set]] including both albums on CD (with bonus tracks) and a DVD featuring a 25-minute documentary entitled ''The True History of the Traveling Wilburys'' and a collection of music videos. The box set was released in three editions: the standard edition, with both CDs and DVD in a double [[Digipak]] package and a 16-page booklet; a "deluxe" boxed edition with the CDs and DVD and an extensive 40-page booklet, artist postcards, and photographs; or a "deluxe" boxed edition on vinyl. This version omits the DVD, but adds a [[Twelve-inch single|12-inch vinyl disc]] with rare versions of the songs.
