Lots of omissions in this book. There's a ton of unique promo sleeves that aren't reprinted for starters...

Yeah, it's a gorgeous book but the omissions really grate. Lots of missing "unique sleeve" items such as the Somewhere, Miracles and Flamboyant CD promos. Lots of stuff missing, actually.

As minimal as it is, the promo sleeve for Somewhere is one of my fave PSB sleeves ever. Just pleased I have it and don't have to worry about it not being in the book.

i was hoping for a section on t shirts and other items sold at shows and exclusive stuff from the fan club. all in all its a great book though.

Tempted to dump the Amazon order and use Waterstones, even if it does cost me £5 more.
