In 1999, 11 Bruce Springsteen studio albums, 2 live albums, and 1 EP were reissued in mini-LP cardboard sleeves as part of a "Nice Price" series. The series was issued in two waves, one on 21 Aug 1999 and one on 22 Sep 1999. The first wave includes "Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J.", "The Wild, The Innocent & The E Street Shuffle", "Born To Run", "Darkness On The Edge Of Town", "The River", "Nebraska", and "Chimes Of Freedom". The second wave was on sale for a few hours in very few stores in Japan before it was withdrawn. It includes "Born In The U.S.A.", "Live/1975-85", "Tunnel Of Love", "Human Touch", "Lucky Town", "In Concert / MTV Plugged", and "The Ghost Of Tom Joad".

"Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J." features a postcard gatefold and unique wrap-around obi replicating the second 1975 Japanese vinyl issue of the album.
