Subject: Has anyone ever acquired or seen a 1999 Columbine yearbook? Tue Nov 01, 2016 9:56 am
Just curious. I feel like it would be a really cool/odd thing to have. There is a story of one being sold on ebay, but it turned out to be stolen and was returned to the owner.

It'd be an amazing piece to have. Whether you are into the shootings or not. Any yearbook they are even in 96-99 is probably interesting

I don't have a physical copy but I have an e-version of it. Interesting to know that several pages feat. Eric & Dylan were supposed to be in the book but were removed by staff following the shootings.

How did you obtain the e-version? And would you consider sharing?

Yeah how'd you obtain it? I've seen the full scanned yearbook online before but I never saved it. Question. The original version featuring the boys never got published, correct? Does the final version contain the full UNCROPPED class photo? Cause remember the one all of us have seen is cropped.

They other half of the class photo is available online, I seem to recall seeing it.
One guy did claim to have it on here and when people asked him for it, he never posted again.

I would really like to see the full class photo. It's not forbidden or anything is it? If it is shared privately? If anyone here has it or know where to view it I would appreciate if you'd share with most of us! I'm really intrigued.

The yearbook was too big to email as one piece so I uploaded it here: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
If you want a copy for yourself I can still email it but it would be broken up into pieces. LMK if you would want that instead

I just made a random selection of the pages of the yearbook and the first page I select has a picture of Dylan Klebold and the second page has a picture of Lauren Townsend. That was unexpected.

This is the closest thing to the full class photo that I've ever come across and of course, Dylan and Eric are cut out of it and it's blurry. If someone has a better copy, would you mind sharing it? There are plenty of cropped versions of this photo on the internet but I can't find a single full one. And no, these pictures are not included in the yearbook. They are way too large to fit into the yearbook. We did this same exact thing at my high school and it was a picture you had to buy separately for like $30 bucks on top of your yearbook that was like $75 bucks.
And another thing we did at my school that they did at Columbine was, even though we got senior pictures taken for the yearbook where we had to dress up and whatnot, they still took 12th grade photos. A lot of people tend to mistake Dylan and Eric's regular 12th grade photos for 11th grade because of the senior pictures where they dressed up. That's not the case though, the last regular pictures that Dylan and Eric took that were in color are for 12th grade. The photos they used on the news the day of the shooting was actually their 11th grade photos and those were in black and white. And that is because only 12th grade students have color pictures in the yearbook. 9th - 11th were in black and white.

Yes and their final photos undeniably depict how dead they are on the inside.

Whereabouts are those photos in the yearbook because I can't find them and I'm pretty certain they weren't included. Those are the 12th grade photos I was talking about. Seniors have the option of still getting them but the photos in the yearbook are the ones where they are dressed up. Eric's wearing a flannel shirt and Dylan a blue one.

Eric is on page 77 but no, I'm not talking about those photos. I was referring to the ones posted a few posts back. The post says those pictures are in the yearbook but I'm wondering where cuz I don't see them and I am pretty sure they aren't in there.

Is it perhaps in the original publishing which was then scrapped?
Anyway in regards to the class photo, I guess to see the full uncropped one it would have to depend on a former student who purchased it and is willing to share. Infact I actually had the same thing done in my school wayyyyy back and I can't believe I forgot about it. Yeah we did have the option of buying that laminated size for how many dollars.

Or I think by the time their 12th grade photos were taken they weren't gonna claim it anyway cause by then the massacre had happened.

OK and what pages are they on because that just looks like something someone made up. I looked through the entire yearbook and don't see those photos any where. The only photos for 12th graders are the ones where they are dressed up so unless someone can point them out to me in the actual yearbook, I'm just going to assume they weren't in the yearbook.
And no, the massacre didn't already happen once the pictures came back. The senior photos (the ones in the yearbook) were taken in the summer of 1998. Literally as soon as you're done 11th grade, like a month later, they take your senior photos and you get them back right before the school year starts. The 12th grade photos (the ones not in the yearbook) are usually taken the 2nd day of your 12th grade school year and you get the pictures back like 6 weeks later. So by November of 1998, the boys had all their photos back. That's why Dylan's hair looks a bit shorter than when he died because by then, the photos were about 9 or 10 months old.

The only place I can find these photos are in the opening pages of the yearbook, in the big black/white collage with all the other student's pictures. Can't see them anywhere else.

Yea, that is the only place I thought they could be if they were actually in the yearbook because I looked all through the rest of the book and didn't see them any where else. Were you able to spot Dylan and Eric in the collages?

Thank you for pointing them out for me. I probably would have been sitting here all day trying to find them. And I saw you tagged me asking for the suicide photo. I will private message that to you now.

This here are the photos that all the news stations were using once they started releasing information about the shooters. I remember seeing these pictures on the news that day clear as day. I had just gotten home from school and sat in the kitchen with my Mom and Grandmom watching it. Of course, Dylan and Eric were long dead by then but weren't found until later.
And no wonder people thought there was a 3rd shooter - when these photos started flashing on the TV, the kids who made it out of the school were probably wondering where the shooter with the long hair was because Dylan didn't even really look like that anymore. But the school said it was the only photos they had access to at the time. These pictures were about a year and a half old at the time of the shooting.
Eric is on top 6 places to the right, Dylan is on left 5th line from the top
Yea, another member was nice enough to locate the boys, circle their photos and post the picture for me. That's why I kept asking you to point the photos out for me because obviously I couldn't find them myself and looked all throughout the yearbook and still didn't see them. But thanks anyway.

l Eric's eyes give me the creeps! You can see the anger and hate. Dylan not as much but still dead in the eyes, as you say. I can't sleep after seeing those eyes. Yikes. It will give me nightmares.

I've recently bought a '99 yearbook from the same person who sold me the signed '96 book. It's eerie to read through (especially some of the inscriptions), and of course the creepy empty space where a photo of Eric would have been gives me chills. I'm still surprised they didn't remove their senior pics from the book as well.

'99 is already available online is it not? I think it's also on Jenn's Facebook page (it was half done when I last visited it a couple of months ago so I guess it might all be there by now).
Or do you mean the '96 book that Froggy has?
I might scan the '97 one in when I have a chance. It's fucking massive though and would take a while - edit - that's if it's not already scanned somewhere and available online?
