Led Zeppelin IV VER 1 UK vinyl LP RARE ,Inverted Feather, Peter Grant,Plum Label

HOLY GRAIL! Ticks all the boxes:   - Plum Label   - Inverted feather symbol on side 2 label  - Executive Producer: Peter Grant, credit on both sides  - Side A  - Pecko Duck and A3; Side B - Porky and B4
For information about this rarely available release visit Discogs, ref a match with this release: - /release/2893139-Led-Zeppelin-Untitled-
The text there states: 1st UK pressing on 'plum' label which is red/white/plum. Feather symbol on side 2 is inverted. This label layout identifies the first pressing. It is part of the first production batch of the UK red/plum Atlantic label for this title.
No mention of Superhype Music Inc.
Executive Producer credit for Peter Grant (which was removed in various ways from all subsequent pressings - see below).
Heavyweight unlaminated gatefold sleeve, printed and made in England.
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.
ABOUT THIS COPY:
The Gatefold sleeve is in excellent condition; fantastic unmarked spine  - only the faintest of wear and tear from handling and storage, no rips; great inside gatefold - see photos
The original inner , with Stairway to Heaven lyrics, is also excellent - often ripped , taped up, this has a slight rubbing away on one edge, all the flipovers are intact. No pen marks - superb! (replacement anti-static used for the LP)
Labels have no writing; no sticky marks - slight signs in the centre of where its been played in the past. Superb again...
Vinyl, both sides are clean; very little sign of wear/usage; A few faint wispy sleeve removal hairlines - hard to see , and I have tried to show a couple in the photos. They are on the surface and have little impact on playing
IT PLAYS EXCELLENT!. As an old collectable it inevitably has some occasional pop and crackle, a few quiet bits and runins , but they hardly notice and it is still a fantastic listen all through generally. I did detect, when side 1 was playing, a slight warp I think, but not serious.
So, overall A RAREST LED ZEPPELIN UNTITLED, IV, earliest release; complete, excellent and plays superbly...therefore a high price; however, open to sensible offers.
PLEASE VIEW ALL THE PHOTOS AND THE CLIP OF WHEN THE LEVEE BREAKS!
Currently the listing on Discogs states: Last sold on Apr 08, 2026 £747.96 Average £562.50 Median £2,500.00 High
Will be well packed and protected...
