THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1971 VERY 1ST UK PRESS ON THE RED AND PLUM ATLANTIC LABEL, CATALOGUE NUMBER 2401012. THE FEATHER SYMBOL ON THE LABEL OF SIDE 2 IS INVERTED. IT HAS THE EARLIEST MATRIX NO.S A//3 AND B//3 WITH 'PECKO DUCK' ETCHED ON THE DEADWAX OF SIDE A AND 'PORKY' ON THE DEADWAX OF SIDE B.
AS STATED ON DISCOGS:
'There is an Executive Producer credit for Peter Grant (which was removed in various ways from all subsequent pressings).
It comes in a heavyweight unlaminated gatefold sleeve, printed and made in England.
The Inner sleeve has lyrics to 'Stairway to Heaven' on one side and track titles and credits on the other. The first inner sleeves are dark gray with two foldback edges to the side. Interestingly, whilst Jimmy Page succeeded in having the Peter Grant credit removed from the labels, they were never removed from the inner sleeves. Also, the inner sleeve for the first pressings only (i.e. the Peter Grant label credit), have an additional credit line 'Photography-Keith Morris' above the 'Produced By Jimmy Page' credit. The Keith Morris credit disappears from the inner sleeve from the third pressing onwards.
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.'
