afansince74 Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 Does anyone here own a copy of the 2112 tourbook? I'm looking for someone who might have scanned images into their computer from this book. Or someone who might be willing to scan them for me? Like pictures, back cover, etc. I'm trying to complete a project I started several years ago, and this one tourbook is the last one I need to complete it! Even just some info on the contents of the book would be helpful. Other than the writtings, I don't even know for sure if there are any pictures or anything else inside! I'm just fishing here! and thanks, in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madra sneachta Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 2112 Tourbook As posted by BSG. The Power Windows website also has scans from tourbooks and other similar resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Power Windows website also has scans from tourbooks and other similar resources. Appreciate that Madra. But unless something has changed lately (and I just double-checked again just now), neither TRF nor Power Windows has anything more than the tourbook covers. I'm trying to create a kind of "e-Tourbook" that encompasses all their books, from 2112 to R30, and is organized in order, as if you were looking at the real thing. Although I own them all and have most of the images scanned already (except 2112, of course!), I want to make this into a personal "coffee table book" to browse thru at my lessure, without having to pull out the originals and risk damage to them. I know that probably sounds silly to some of you, but that's just my little thing. I did this years ago with lyrics and have added to it with each new Lp. I hope to do the same thing with the tourbooks. That's specifically what I'm trying to do. And thanks for trying to help RR, Madra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilPeartFan2112 Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 I wish I owned it, but the only tourbook that I have been able to come across from back in the day is the Permanent Waves one. Let me know if you need anything from that one sometime. I'll be happy to give you some of the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfuentes Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 I wish I had all of the tourbooks. And the import Different Stages from Japan. Those mini-tourbooks sound interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if I haven't got this thing done by the time you get your scanner back into a state of full-function, I'll take you up on that! But in the meantime, can you tell me anything about it? Is it similar, say, to the AF2K or HEM tourbooks, as far as layout, pics, etc.? Just curious, being that I've never seen one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaine mac Roth Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 To be honest, I can't remember, its been so long since I've had it out of its safe place (necessary with a 4 year old and a 2 year old in the house). Plus, at the moment, this safe place is inaccessible without a major rearrangement of furniture. As far as I remember, it was a smaller format than the other Rush tour books and the majority of pictures were black and white or blue and white or red and white if you get what I mean. If I get the scanner running and a path to my collection opens, I'll definitely scan it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redstar86 Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 You can find the tourbook for 2112 (including the contents) at this site. All of the other tourbooks and their contents are at http://www.nmsmirror.com/HTML/tourbook.html Enjoy! I have read every last word in each of them! However, if you want the flesh and blood book from '76, I wouldn't know where else to begin other than eBay. I wasn't even around in '76. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Companion Thanks Companion! If you read my earlier post here, I'm making a printable, electronic version of each tourbook, scanning each one, cover to cover and in order, to try to keep each of them as true to their original layout and format as possible. I have the front cover and all the writtings, but that's it. So I guess what I was wanting, if it's not too much trouble, are scanned images from the tourbook, as you would see them if you were looking at the book, page by page, including the back cover. I also need to know their respective order. WOW! I just re-read that.... I'm a needy little bastard, aren't I ?! Anyway, I know that's a lot to ask, but anything you might be able to do would be greatly appreciated! After reading all this, if you're still interested, let me know or PM me. And if not, thanks anyway,... to you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, the 2112 tourbook has no pictures. Bummer! But the others do have some pictures, so that's cool. Of course, I have those already, but that's still cool. Thanks so much for your help!

A Companion Unobtrusive Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 I'll just simply scan every page, front to back and number the images. How's that? Jpg's OK? Or Bmp's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
