Columbine yearbook and full class photos available

They tried to deliver it to work this morning. I think it's been taken back to the sorting office so I assume they will try to re-deliver on Monday morning! I'd go there right now for it but I don't have the card they will have posted through the door of work to say they tried to deliver it.

You are immensely lucky for that. Touching the same surface that he had!

Damn, I'm treating him like a rockstar. Sigh shame on me tsk tsk

Hahah! Yeah, I'm insanely lucky! It doesn't feel real yet.. As a Columbine researcher seeing everything in books and through a computer screen, to hold and own a physical item directly related to one of the people involved is beyond comprehension; it's a physical connection to that world. It's crazy knowing that Eric himself held that book, let alone wrote in it.

Yeah I have literally stopped recording the Murderabilia Part 2 Video because of this. I want to get that Yearbook and class photo in it!

Now of course, I'm not going to mention anything that you guys don't want me to.

What are you planning to say about them?

Mainly that they exist and that the writing in it from Eric Harris is authentic.

There is no need to mention names or that it was purchased. I can, however give credit to the owner and a thanks if they would like.

Definitely authentic as that's Eric's signature, he and his unique way of signing off.

I don't mind either way really for being credited. I suppose if people want to know where you got it you can give my username and link to the forum as per a couple of your other videos is fine by me (assuming that's ok with admin).

As mentioned, hopefully I'll have it to you in the next 24 hours. Froggy is in the same part of the world as me so assuming postage takes a similar time you might have the material you need for your video in about a week's time.

Great! Thank you!

They have arrived. Had to collect from post office this morning as they wanted a handling fee.

Great news, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]!! I'm still waiting on Jennifer to send mine out. Can't wait.

I don't mind you using my username too! Thanks. I'll get the photos to you as soon as the book arrives. Should take about a week from when Jennifer ships it out.

Of course I'm fine with giving people credit. I'm the one always bitching and complaining about people not giving others credit. You better post your name or put some kind of mark on those photos so you know they're yours. If not you'll have people over on Tumblr claiming that it is theirs.

I think it's great that you guys who bought this stuff are going to share photos with the forum and let CVA use the photos for his video.

Oh god, please don't say that!

Thanks for providing us with a space to share them! I really can't wait to do so. Also, I love CVA's channel. Hopefully the YouTube reactions will be mostly positive, haha.

I won't be marking the photos I don't think. I'll let you guys see the clean versions of them. If people claim it's theirs on Tumblr then so be it. I just hope if the link to the forum is used it doesn't attract too many Eric & Dylan supporters to come along and visit.

I should be getting over to the other office in the next hour so all being well they should be available soon.

Apologies - hit a couple of snags with the scans.

I've done them but some of the faces are warped because of the way the photographs are kept rolled up (eg like a scroll). I need two hands to hold it flat while it feeds through but then I can't reach the button on the computer a few yards away to start the scan.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] just sent me one of the "warped" versions of the photos, and honestly, it isn't even that bad; it doesn't affect much of the photo/faces at all. I'm sure most of you guys can overlook it. It is incredible to see the class photo in its entirety, something that we've waited a very long time for!

You did a great job, man! Thanks!!

I'll be trying again shortly and I may have someone to hold it this time!

Could you send me one too? I pm-ed you my email

Have you had to explain to them about the photos?

Can't wait to see pics of the class photo and yearbook. Will you be posting pics of the inscription from Eric as well [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]?

Absolutely! Jennifer told me she's sending the book out today, so I should have it around this time next week. Very excited!!

I've just sent them to Froggy for proofing - I couldn't see any warping this time round but I didn't have time to check in detail. If they are good to go I'll get them posted and I can email you too if you want Shades.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] emailed you back. They look fantastic, I'm so excited!! Spotted a few familiar faces.

Draw_it_white, would it be okay if you emailed me too?

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] I'd love to see this photo too! I've never used PM on here but I'm sure I could figure it out!!! So excited to see

Apparently there's still slight warping. To be honest I'm not convinced I'm going to be able to do them any better than I've got them now.

Honestly, they're great as they are. There was only the tiniest smudge, seriously. I say post them!

Will you put them on here then somewhere? I'll send emails to those who wanted them when I get home.

Sure, would you like me to post them in this thread or make a separate thread for them?

Please make a separate thread for the pictures.

I am sure everybody here is looking forward to the Class of 1999 photos

I've replied to the email you sent me.

I am interested in the two photos providing they are originals but the quoted price would need to come down considerably.

For those interested in the yearbook - I assume this is genuine. I've seen a photo of the yearbook itself (available on the web if you do a quick search) but not seen the signed part by Eric. Way out of my price range though.

how much is the yearbook? Cant seem to find the price anywhere

Pretty sure the yearbook was sold already, right [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]?

Yep, I've already bought it!

I thought so.

Can you tell us how much it cost you?

If not it is okay to keep that private.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] are you going to post any pictures of it?

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Of course! Jennifer sent the book out to me today so it should arrive in about a week!

Great, looking forward! I'm a bit jealous though. (redacted by Jenn) bucks really isn't that much money. I was expecting more like (redacted by Jenn)

Thank you for your honesty [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Yep, I'd agree with that. I'd keep the sellers name off the video too. I know she herself gave her name on here and where she was in the school when they shooting happened but I guess she wouldn't want her details posting on CVA's video.

Yea, I will contact him and suggest that he only use her forum username.

It's ok thanks, I've spoken to him via email and he won't include it. I don't think he was going to anyway.

Thanks so much, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]! It was a dumb move on my part but I quickly realised that.

Yes, in an email I asked Jennifer if she'd prefer no mention of her name in the YouTube video, she said that she doesn't want it mentioned. Also, in another email, she told me that if anyone contacts me about who sold me the yearbook not to give them her details unless she specifically says so. Not that I would. So yeah, that goes for anyone on the forum too. Maybe I should black out her name on Eric's inscription too? I don't want tumblr kids trying to find out which 'Jen' she might be.

Oh OK, that's good. Honestly, I don't think Jennifer wants much to do with all this Columbine stuff. It is probably best just to leave her name out of it altogether because I seriously doubt she wants people trying to contact her and asking her a bunch of questions about Eric. Most likely she just wanted to sell her stuff and then be done with it. Of course, that's just my opinion but if that's the case, I don't blame her. It's a completely different story when you're the one who actually lived it.

She's right, you don't have to tell anyone or owe it to anyone to let them know where you got the yearbook from and how much you paid for it. That's a good question about blocking her name out. As long as it's just her first name, it should be OK for you to post a photo of that. I'm sure she knew when she sold it to you that you'd most likely be sharing what Eric wrote down in her yearbook. Personally, I think it's more authentic to show the message in its entirety, but that is completely up to you.

She has included her full maiden name on here, so I would think it would be ok to show the entire message on here just from the yearbook.

Thanks guys, as it is just her first name in Eric's inscription, I'll include it. I just wanted a second opinion. Obviously I won't show any other names/details in the yearbook though. I think I would like to watermark my pics, just in case (as Jenn said) any tumblr folk, or the like, claim it's theirs. I'm also nervous about them seeing the book as you never know what they're going to do/where they'll post it.

TY for sharing it! I have a digital copy of the yb myself but it is missing so many pages!

I think we've all been as careful as we could have been. No private email addresses, residential addresses, fees paid nor any real names have been used (other than Jennifer's real name which she openly gave). I think we've all come out quite well in this. She'll have always known (and we stated on here) that we'd be prepared to share pictures of the items online and I don't think she has a problem with that. Maybe she would like the name redacting - maybe froggy could ask her. Plenty of time for her to think it over whilst the item is delivered.

No problem! Just to be sure - you know it's the 1996 yearbook, right? If so, ignore this, I just haven't seen a digital copy of it before.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] You're totally right. Ah, maybe I will ask her, just to be on the safe side..
