Description
This Auction is for a very rare (especially in this condition!!!!) LP set by Led Zeppelin. The Album is called "In Through the Out Door" This is an extremely rare 1979 GENIUNE UK 100% COMPLETE A to F 6-LP FULL SET 1st Pressing!!!! <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
THIS SET OF LPS IS SERIOUSLY RARE IN EACH AND EVERY RESPECT!!!! WHEN THIS WAS RELEASED IN 1979 THE LP WAS SOLD WITH 6 DIFFERENT COVERS - EACH INDIVIDUALLY LABELLED A,B,C,D,E, & F ON THE SPINE - AND EACH WITH A DIFFERENT PICTURE ON THE COVER (SOME SUBTLE AND SOME COMPLETELY DIFFERENT! THE LP WAS HOWEVER SOLD INSIDE A BROWN PAPER BAG - MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW EXACTLY WHICH PICTURE COVER & LETTER YOU HAD - UNTIL IT WAS OPENED! AS A RESULT TO FIND A 100% COMPLETE 'A TO F' FULL SET OF LP IS EXTREMELY RARE AND ALMOST AN IMPOSSIBLITY TO FIND! BUT WHAT MAKES THE SET UP FOR AUCTION TODAY EVEN MORE SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION! EVERY SINGLE PIECE - INCLUDING THE BROWN OUTER BAGS, THE MAIN PICTURE COVERS, THE 'MAGIC PAINT' INNER SLEEVES, AND OF COURSE THE RECORDS ARE ALL IN SUPERB CONDITION! USUALLY WHEN YOU FIND A FULL SET LIKE THIS - THERE IS ALMOST CERTAINLY A WEAK POINT WITH 1 RECORD BEING SCRATCHED, OR ONE PICTURE COVER BEING SPLIT. BUT NOT THIS SET! THE WHOLE 6-LP 'A TO F' FULL SET IS ALL IN SUPERB CONDITION!!!!
NOT ONLY THAT BUT IT IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO STRESS THAT THIS IS A 100% COMPLETE AND TOTALLY ORIGINAL <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />UK 1ST PRESSING! VERY OFTEN ON SETS SUCH AS THIS - A TEN A PENNY 'EUROPEAN' PICTURE COVER IS SUBSTITUTED - OR YOU MAY FIND A GERMAN RECORD OR OUTER BAG. BUT NOT MINE! EVERY SINGLE COMPONENT OF THIS VERY RARE 'A-F' 6-LP FULL SET IS A 100% GENIUNE UK 1ST PRESSING!!!! I WILL PROVIDE ALL THE DETAILS THAT SHOW EVERY PART OF THIS SET TO BE A GENIUNE UK 1ST PRESSING!!!!
FIRSTLY EVERY ONE OF THE 6 LPS IN THIS SET HAVE 'MANUFACTURED IN THE UK' TEXT ON EACH OF THE LABELS, 'STRAWBERRY' STAMPED IN THE RUN OFF GROOVES, AND EACH RECORD ALSO HAS THE CORRECT 1ST PRESS MATRIX ENDINGS - BEING A5/B5 (THESE ARE THE 1ST PRESS MATRIXES - THERE WERE NONE EARLIER)!!!! SECONDLY ALL OF THE 6 'MAGIC PAINT' INNER SLEEVES HAVE THE CORRECT 'PRINTED AND MADE IN ENGLAND' TEXT AT THE BOTTOM OF EACH. ALL OF THE BROWN OUTER BAGS HAVE THE CORRECT UK CAT NUMBER 'SSK 59410' AND TEXT 'C1979 A SWAN SONG RECORDING DISTRUBUTED BY WEA RECORDS LIMITED' AND NO OTHER TEXT. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE OTHER COUNTRIES OUTER COVERS HAVE OTHER TEXT INDICATING THE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN - UK OUTER BAGS DO NOT. ANOTHER IMPORTANT POINT TO MAKE IS THAT THESE UK BROWN OUTER BAGS ARE 'LINED' WITH DISTINCTIVE LIGHTER AND DARKER COLOURED LINES OF BROWN PAPER FROM MANUFACTURE - WHEREAS OUTER BAGS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES ARE PLAIN. AND FINALLY AND PROBABLY MOST IMPORTANTLY IS THAT ALL 6 'A TO F' MAIN PICTURE COVERS ARE GENIUNE UK. THERE IS A VERY
SIMPLE WAY TO TELL! ALL UK 1ST PRESS PICTURE COVERS HAVE (ABOUT THREE QUARTERS OF THE WAY DOWN THE SPINE) 'C1979 A SWAN SONG RECORDING' AND AT THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE SPINE THE UK CAT NUMBER 'SSK 59410'. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT AS PICTURE COVERS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES ARE OFTEN CHANGED OR MISTAKENLY PUT IN TO 'COMPLETE' THE SET. THE COVERS THAT ARE MOST OFTEN USED TO 'COMPLETE' THE SET ARE FRENCH OR GERMAN COVERS - AS THEY HAVE THE SAME 'CAT NUMBER'. HOWEVER THERE IS ONE EASY TELL TALE SIGN. FRENCH AND GERMAN COVERS DO NOT HAVE THE UK CAT NUMBER AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SPINE. IN ITS PLACE THEY HAVE THE WORD 'STEREO' (WHICH DOES NOT APPEAR ON UK COVERS). SO BASICALLY WHAT THIS MEANS IS, ANY PICTURE COVER WITH THE WORD 'STEREO' ON THE SPINE IS NOT A UK COVER AND HAS BEEN 'SWOPPED' OR 'MISTAKEN' FOR A UK COVER (WHEN OF COURSE IT IS BLATENTLY NOT). BELIEVE ME - THIS SET IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE AS A 100% GENIUNE UK 1ST PRESS 6-LP 'A TO F' FULL SET (ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION)!
The Cat. No is SSK 59410 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Swan Song labels (see picture) and is a Stereo 1st pressing All the tracks are pure quality Led Zeppelin at their best! Any true fan of Led Zeppelin (or indeed 60s/70s music in general) will want to have this in their collection - especially in this condition!
The record labels on ALL the records are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wearing and barely ANY spindle marks.
The records also come in their ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Magic Paint' inner sleeves which are ALL in SUPERB condition and most importantly UNSPLIT! Adding to that it is also EXTREMELY important to note that ALL the inner sleeves have NO 'colour' showing from ANY water damage and ALL are in their ORIGINAL condition!
The FULL SET of GENIUNE UK 1st Press 6 Different Picture Covers (Labeled Individually A to F), are ALL in fantastic condition! ALL the covers are VERY flat looking), NO ring wear AT ALL, and NO writing! Even the unlaminated backs of the covers are in GREAT condition with NO writing, and NO grubbiness
The 1st Press Set of 6 UK Brown Outer Bags are ALL in SUPER condition! With NO splits, NO staining (apart from one bag at the very top (see pictures)), barely ANY creases (ALL are VERY flat looking), NO grubbiness, NO fading, and NO writing!!!!
