I'm living in temporary space while trying to sell my house, and all of 
my books are in storage. So I can't walk in and look at the bookshelf.

Jim Shulman invented the yearbook and managed the publication of the 
first 8 years of them. Geoff Hopkinson did 2014 and Richard Man did 
2015.

blurb.com still offers 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 
and 2015.
I have the PDF of Geoff Hopkinson's 2014 edition but haven't yet put it 
back on blurb.com.

I believe that there were no yearbooks for 2016, 2017, or 2018.
I'll have 2019 out in a few days.

I'm mostly following Jim's design, but I'm going to use Avenir instead 
of Georgia (which Jim and Geoff used) or Lucida (which Richard used). I 
spent an unforgettable evening with Adrian Frutiger in Nice in 1981, 
watching the annual student riots and drinking Swiss wine. Ever since 
then I have felt compelled to use his fonts.
