The deluxe edition comes in a paper card packaging and the album art is pleasing. The package is a 2 fold envelope unique from CDs I've previously owned. All the pockets are used efficiently. There is a lyrics sheet included which is double sided which can have a poster on the reverse. The CDs are secured in the package well (as long as it is not dropped) there is no flap to stop one CD from coming out, but this comes shrink wrapped.
