Programme for the charity performance at LA 24/08/89. This is an extended version (66 pages) of the standard 1989 programme on thicker paper. It has the adverts/congratulations from the embossed version, an intro from Bill Curbishley and photos of the guest singers.

1989 Tommy embossed cover

1989 US Tommy charity performances (NY 27/06/89 and LA 24/08/89)
Not a bad programme containing the story of Tommy taken from the Townshend/Barnes book and in case you needed them the lyrics to Tommy. Also lot of adverts for sponsors of the event. Roughly A4 size.

I don't know how official this is, as there is a seperate programme for LA and I bought this in HMV in Leeds.

1989 The Kids Are Alright Tour

48 pages, Based around photos of the band over 25 years and large amounts of memorabilia and press cuttings, this is one of the better programmes.
