SEE OUR OTHER RARE RECORDS AND MUSIC MEMORABILIA

From the collection of a former Atlantic Records employee, here is a test pressing with unknown matrix numbers (ending -H) of Led Zeppelin's album PRESENCE, dated February 9, 1976 (the official release date was released March 31 of that year.) The disc has matrix numbers ending in -H and we can find no evidence which has ever been released. It is in NM--/EX+ condition with a few very minor scuffs, and has the following matrix number: (side one) ST-SS-763559-H (with the inscription ATLANTIC STUDIOS PR and With Help From Tom) and (side two) ST-SS-763560-H (with the inscription ATLANTIC STUDIOS PR and AT). The disc is in the original generic cover with info sheet taped to the front, and four titles circled. Ultra rare and in great condition.

We welcome International buyers and ship around the world every week.

US & Canada Shipping: $9 for 1-2 LP's by insured Priority Mail (Ebay’s recent rule change requires us to offer Media Mail shipping for records, at $4.00 for 1 LP. As this is a very slow method of shipping and uninsured, we cannot guarantee safe delivery by this method and strongly recommend paying extra for the much quicker and safer Priority Mail.) $15 for 1-2 posters, shipped priority mail in a new mailer/tube & US orders are automatically insured for up to $200 in value. Calif. buyers add 8.75% sales tax (calculated automatically by Paypal.) All other items shipped at cost.

International Shipping: $16 for 1 LP airmail without insurance. $4 for each additional LP; $21 for 1-2 posters. All other items shipped at cost. Because of problems with the Italian Post Office, we highly recommend either insured or registered mail for all Italian orders and cannot be responsible for any order shipped to Italy without one or the other of these.  486 (GS 6.5.1 (486))
