Description

Led Zeppelin 1 Turquoise First Press.. Condition is Used. Dispatched with Royal Mail Special Delivery (TM) 1:00 pm.

The most obvious way to spot one of these rarities is by looking at the cover. Notice the turquoise blue printing versus the bright orange printing we’re accustomed to seeing on the cover nowadays. Apparently a last-minute decision was made by the band and their manager Peter Grant just as this record was going to press.


It seems that the turquoise text on the front just wasn’t the right look for a heavy rock ‘n’ roll band, in their view. As a result, the colors were changed and it is said that only a small shipment (less than 2000 copies) of the turquoise sleeves ever left the plant.


The condition of the vinyl is quite good please check and zoom in on the photos. It plays mostly well but there are however some dinks and jumps so will need someone who knows what they are doing with vinyl to correct them. The cover is in good condition considering it’s 50 years old and is mostly laminated. Also the inner sleeve has a rip in it as seen on the photo. This is a really rare piece. Uncorrected matrix picture included please zoom in to see as is the unusual credit to super hype music. Reduced because of the dinks. Still collecting classic
