War Tour - Common War Tour book

Tour Legs: Most likely this program was sold at more than one leg of the war tour as merchandise as the program does not look to have been put together to promote any particular stage of the tour.
Dates covered in program: There are no concert dates listed in this program
No. of pages: 8 pages, unfolded becomes a large poster on one side.
Size: Folded 21cm x 30cm, unfolded poster 84cm x 60cm
Printing: On thin glossy paper. On one side is a large colour group photo of the band on the set of filming for the single release only 'A Celebration' in Kilmainham Jail in Dublin. The jail was later used for the film In The Name of The Father, of which Bono co-wrote the lead single with long time pal Gavin Friday.

The other side has more pictures taken from the video session and also an interview with the band regarding the tour.
Cost: £44.69 on ebay. I was happy with this price as I'd been outbid on previous auctions for this item where the finishing prices reached as high as £80.

I've only seen this one on ebay, not any external music memorabilia websites/stores. Prices can range from £45 all the way up to £85 depending on quality.
