Tour Books

Which tours had a tour programme/tour book? I have Purple Rain, Lovesexy, and Act I, I believe. I'm considering hunting some of them down, although I know it's going to be a tough hunt, and pricey.

I know more recent tours haven't had tourbooks, necessarily, but I would imagine they were more of a standard back in the day.

Thoughts?

No books for 3121, Planet Earth, Or Lotus. There is another book around the time of One Nite Alone Tour. I think it might be Hawaii. I would have to dig it out. There were Welcome 2 America books for New York, California, Canada, Australia, and Chicago. I'm a huge fan of the tour books and have them all.
