Description
LED ZEPPELIN IV (UNTITLED) LP RARE UK , A3/B3 1st Press Vinyl - Inverted Feather, EX
ATLANTIC - 2401012 - 1971
A//3 B//3 matrix numbers with 'Pecko Duck' and 'Porky' etched in the run-outs.
Early vinyl press A//3 11, B//3 12 mother stampers.
Rare 1st Pres A3/B3 with original plum & red labels and the inverted feather symbol on side 2 label. The labels on Led Zeppelin IV were changed shortly after this record was first released to remove the credit for Peter Grant as Executive Producer and add Superhype to the publishing credits. This required a 're-design' of the label as some other things on the labels needed to be moved around - most notably the positioning of the band's name. This copy features the Jimmy page credit and rare inverted feather on the side 2 label. It was only used for a very short time on a small number copies before being corrected and is among the hardest to find of any Led Zeppelin rarities, and is also in excellent condition.
Detailed Description
Vinyl: The vinyl looks great and has retained its original high sheen. Under bright light, there are only a few very light sleeve removal hairlines, with no audio impact. I have played the entire record and it sounds excellent. This is an excellent example and is a real pleasure to listen to. I would play-grade as Excellent (Ex).
Sleeve: Original gatefold sleeve in excellent near perfect condition with clean surfaces and sharp edges EX
Inner sleeve: 1st pressing textured grey inner sleeve in good clean condition with only minor splits and shelf wear.
Vinyl will be sent in a brand new Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab inner sleeve and will be well packed using only the highest quality oversize record mailing box with stiffeners that protects the record and sleeve corners, which can often be damaged.
