Please read the description carefully especially the postage costs AND
PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE. Thank You.="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, SANs-serif">
Catalogue number:- 2401 012.
FIRST PRESSING:- Red plum Atlantic label.
Date of Release:- 1970.
Title:- Led Zeppelin IV.
Performer(s): Led Zeppelin.
The labels on Led Zeppelin IV were changed shortly after release to remove the credit for Peter Grant as Executive Producer and add Superhype to the publishing credits. This required a 're-design' as some other things on the labels needed to be moved around - most notably the positioning of the band's name. Because of this, there are two distinctly different lay-outs of the red/plum labels on copies of Led Zeppelin IV. But even before this re-design, another error had been spotted and quickly corrected - the inverted feather on the side two label This copy features the very first label design, before any changes were made. It was only used for a very short time on a small number of the first copies and is among the hardest to find of any Led Zeppelin rarities.
Further information:-
1st pressing, 1st labels, gatefold sleeve, red/plum labels with Peter Grant credit,

and "Porky" on side 1
Made in UK. EARLIEST EVER MATRIX 2401 012 A//3 & 2401 012 B//3.
Detailed description
Vinyl:
Under bright light, sleeve removal lines, whispy hairlines and fine marks were visible as well as a handful of more-prominent LOOKING hairlines, but these have no audible impact. I have played the entire record and it sounds superb. There is some background noise and crackle which can be heard in the quiet parts and the run-ins/outs, fades, silent grooves and intros and the occasional random soft tic. No LOUD CLICKS or frying pan POPS. There were also a handful of places where I heard a short-lived soft tic, but there is nothing which lasts longer than three of four revolutions and certainly no loud, persistent clicks anywhere.This is a super example and was a real pleasure to listen to. I would play-grade both sides around Excellent (Ex) All the loud parts on both sides sound Near Mint (NM).
Labels:
Rare, original label layout, including the inverted feather on side two. There is no damage, writing, stickers etc, just some spindle trails and slight marking around the spindle holes.
Sleeve:
No damage, writing, splits, tears or stickers etc and just light signs of use. There are minor signs of handling but there is nothing of significant anywhere. This is a very presentable example of this original cover and very hard to find like this.
Edge and corner wear:
There is light wear to the corners but NOTHING on the edges or spine and no splits.
Original inner sleeve with exposed flipbacks. This is in super condition. Just a tiny nick at the top opening with no paper loss. No seam splits.
Rare & collectable.
