Hi. Hope someone can help.
Just been reading the Wikipedia entry for Three Imaginery Boys and noticed this about the Deluxe Edition:
"Some of the early booklets in the reissue had the lyrics missing, and were made available on The Cure's website in PDF form."
Looking at my copy, it appears that I have an early copy without lyrics (which makes sense as I bought it pretty much as soon as it came out). I thought I'd try to download a copy of the .pdf from The Cure website but it looks like the link (and all other links I've followed) are now dead.
Does anyone know where I can get hold of a copy of this?
I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules here (I'm new!) by asking for this. It's just that it was legally available before, but I've obviously missed the window of opportunity to get it.
Welcome to the forum. No rules broken. I remember The Cure offering this on their site due to the screw up with the booklet printer. Not sure why they took it off their site though. I just had a rummage & drew a blank too, but I am pretty sure someone here will have downloaded it.
i have it... and both Versions of the booklet... the one without lirycs it is the US version the other one it is the EU version... let me get at home tonight and i will post it here

That's great, Darth. Many, many thanks.
Have you ever printed these out? I just wonder whether the two sides automatically line up, so that they appear as a double-sided sheet when printed. Might just pop into a printers and see what they can do with them. They would be nice as a supplemental booklet.
That's what I would do. Any half decent printer should be able to compile it. If you have any friends in the graphic design business, could save a few pennies

Sadly, I don't know anyone in the trade.
Bit of a question, looking at the two PDFs, it appears that there is a new cover. Did they design a new one for the amended complete booklet, or is this purely a cover for the lyrics only, thereby making a supplemental booklet?
What's weird is that this cover is labelled pages 1 and 16. I was under the impression that the new booklet was 20 pages; the original 16 page booklet plus 4 additional pages containing lyrics and, presumably, 2 'other' pages (being the reverse of the lyrics). But, going with the back cover as page 16, it doesn't appear like they added any new pages. Colour me confused.
