LABEL AND CATALOGUE NUMBER: Atlantic 2401 002 YEAR OF RELEASE: 1971: COUNTRY OF RELEASE: UK CONDITION (VINYL/COVER): VG+/VG+. Vinyl is really clean with a nice dark sheen. Tilted to light there are a few light hairlines mainly to Side One preventing better visual grade. Played all of this today on my budget deck, Sits perfectly flat on the turntable. Music is clean, clear, vibrant and loud.  The usual tests - "Battle Of Evermore", "Stairway To Heaven" and Going To California" all play really clean and loud with just a couple of isolated soft ticks in "Going to California". Gate fold cover is in great condition. It is firm and square and has only light to moderate edge wear,  moderate corner wear and only light creasing.  Less than light wear to spine. The inside of the gate fold is really clean. Inner sleeve retains great shape. It is firm and square and very clean. It has fine spits to all 3 edges but no feathering and no writing. Very clean labels- check out the photos. No writing, rips, stickers or sticker tears.  PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER LED ZEPPELIN/PUNK/METAL/CLASSIC/HARD ROCK LISTINGS IN MY EBAY SHOP. Grading system: I use UK’s “Record Collector” Grading system. I DO PLAY EVERY RECORD I LIST NOW even though its often just quite briefly. Please bear in mind you may get a touch of background sound, even if its just on intros and between the tracks on 30-40 year old vinyl records!! :: MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface mark or deterioration in the sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in the sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover, or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound has noticably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding,scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration etc. I will at times use a + or - to indicate when a record falls between the grades. I REMOVE ALL VINYL FROM SLEEVES PRIOR TO POSTING. RECORDS ARE SENT IN BEST QUALITY MAILERS WITH 2 STIFFENERS. I ALWAYS COMBINE POSTAGE BUT COST DEPENDS ENTIRELY ON WEIGHT OF PACKAGE.
