Topic: Disc-by-disc album artwork (in a box set)

I'm sure this has been asked before, but how exactly should I go about labeling cover art in a box set release with separate covers for each disc? I've been debating whether to label the individual covers as "Front" or "Track." I'm leaning toward the former but this might cause confusion as I don't have a useable image of the front of the cover for the box itself. Worse, I can't find any official guidelines that state what method is appropriate. Any help?

It should be "Front". But yeah, the problem is that the first Front in the list will get selected as front for the sidebar too :/
Do you own the boxset? (if so, you could take a picture of the box front or something)

I do, but it's pretty beat up (from being shifted from box to box). I can try to hunt down a good image on Google and I've been working to avoid Amazon customer images.

EDIT: Google was no help (the best image was from Kotenha, a site that appears to have closed down).
Time to dig out my old scanner...
