Then circa 87-88, an updated version was put out, covering the preceding 7 or so years. And the one I have came out in 1994, following the end of the Division Bell tour, but before the release of Pulse. I wonder if it's not been updated again since then.
I spent a lot of time during the latter half o the 90's look at the pictures in that book.
Edit: checking Amazon, there's been at least four editions of A Visual Documentary. The first came out in 1980, and has a photo of the band onstage from 1977. The second edition came out in 1982, and has a picture of them performing Run Like Hell (you can tell because Gilmour is playing a Telecaster) in front of The Wall. The 1988 edition (the "21st anniversary of the first single" edition) has a photo of the band from the A Momentary Lapse Of Reason tour, with red lasers. And the 1994 edition (which I don't see listed on Amazon) is the 1994 edition.
