LED ZEPPELIN PHYSICAL GRAFFITI 2 LP 1ST UK PRESS SSK 89400 with all the criteria below of a first UK Pressing,
Criteria for a first pressing from THE VINYL REVIEW web site
- Box Cover: The outer cover is of a top loading ‘box’ construction of thick ridged card with the following text printed on the back, top centre: SWAN SONG / 484 KINGS ROAD, LONDON SW10 Cullderstead Ltd., trading as Swan Song A Swan Song/Atlantic recording distributed by WEA Records Ltd., & © 1975
- The group name, record title and catalogue number run down the left hand side spine, viewed from the front, these are printed in red.
- Inner Slip Cover: The gatefold 'slip' insert credits "Gothic Print Finishers Ltd., London SE9 2EQ" as the printers, along with the Swan Song SSK 89400 catalogue number and the address "SWAN SONG, 484 KINGS ROAD, LONDON SW10"
- Inner Sleeves: The Inner sleeves are printed on thick card with a natural untreated grey finish to the inside surfaces. They have SSK 89400/A and SSK 89400/B respectively on the back (bottom right corner) of each of the inners. Later issues were thinner card with a smooth finish to the inside.
- Labels: The labels are the easiest identifying factors for an original UK 1st issue as they should be clearly marked "Made in UK" but most importantly have no small circular WB (Warner Brothers) Logo at the end of the bottom rim text. The WB logo was introduced onto the label in mid 1975 just a few months after the release, so any label with the WB logo is not from the very first batch of pressings.
- Labels : Executive Producer Peter Grant
- Matrix :
- Side 1 - SSK-89400-A1 / Side 2 - SSK-89400-B4 / Side 3 - SSK-89400-C1 / Side 4 - SSK-89400-D1
