Description
Untitled Beautiful 1971 Red, White and Plum label copy of this timeless classic. The sleeve is in beautiful and vibrant shape with near perfect spine. There are very tiny traces of shelf wear at the folding corners of the gatefold but they really are tiny. The inside of the gatefold is still in lovely shape with minimal sign of wear for about an inch on top right. Overall, I would say EX. The original inner has an inch split to the bottom and a tiny rip to mouth, about 1/2 inch. The rest looks nice and fresh. The labels are pristine. The vinyl has a few extremely light marks otherwise super glossy. The vinyl plays beautifully throughout with minimal background noise between some tracks and during the quietest of passages, overall I would say EX.
Please see release details below
Atlantic red/white/plum labels.
? 1971
Sleeve is a gatefold, thick card with sealed left side edge when opened up to reveal 'The Hermit' drawing. Disc is housed in a grey card liner with credits on one side and the lyrics to 'Stairway to Heaven' on the other. Outer glue-tabs on the left and right sides of liner.
Importantly, although Jimmy Page had all the 'Executive Producer Peter Grant' credits removed from the labels by this time, the liner retains this credit, bottom left side.
This release was commonly referred to as 'Led Zeppelin IV', to follow in sequence with their previous three releases, but no actual title appears on the release.
(Note# No track timings appear on the labels or sleeve)
This version has a sticker on the rear of the sleeve with the cat. # K50008 on the labels it is 2401012
