LED ZEPPELIN PHYSICAL GRAFFITI

A True 1st UK B4 Gothic Pressing in Mint Condition!!

Over the next week I will be listing all my Led Zeppelin records.  All the records will end on Friday the 28th of October, 20 minutes apart. All the records were bought from new, stored in plastic sleeves and properly kept. I will list with absolute honesty so you can bid with confidence.

So on to the record...

Here we have an extremely rare Led Zeppelin record in an extremely rare condition. 

This is a true first pressing, with A1 B4 C1 D1 matrix endings, I have seen many sellers trying to pass B5s as first presses, but as we know this is the true 1st pressing.  This is the closest pressing you can get to the original source!!

THE RECORD

The record contains the outer sleeve, both card inner sleeves and the all important insert with the gothic printers assignation.

On the rear, the Swan Song Kings Rd address is present at the very top.

The spine writing appears in large red font

There are no WEA Logos.

All signs of a true first pressing.

THE RECORD GRADED FOR AUDIO

As you would expect from a hardly played record, the audio is near perfect!! 

 There are no hisses, pops or crackle.  It is absolutely stunning to listen to.  The first pressing engineering is super clear, vibrant and bassy. There is perfect definition to all the elements of the music, it seems to really highlight the dynamics in the songs!! This is the ultimate way to listen to such a spectacular record!!  Nr MINT

THE RECORD GRADED VISUALLY

The labels are totally free of any spindle marks, there are no rips, tears or stains. Nr MINT

The records themselves are perfect, still retaining that brand new shine, with no deep scratches, marks or warping of any kind.  Only light hairlines are visible under a strong light  Stunning!! Nr MINT

THE OUTER SLEEVE

Really Beautiful, there are no rips on the windows, as there often is!!  The colours are as vibrant and perfect as they were on day 1 of its creation!!  It is really straight, with no creasing or record marks that have come through

I woud grade this as mint, but there is the slightest of storage wear of the spine, hardly noticable, but to a perfectionist this needs mentioning, but overall simply stunning!!   Nr MINT

THE INNER SLEEVES

These are perfect in everyway, but do have an inch of wear to the tops, the are still completely straight and without creasing.  EXCELLENT++

THE INNER WRAP AROUND

The Inner that contains the important gothic printers, is in perfect condition, no creases or rips what-so-ever!!  NR MINT

This truely is a 1 of a kind!!

You dont often see true fist pressings with the B4 matrix endings, gothic printer, no WEA logos, AND the kings rd address, and never in this wonderful condition!!  They are often beat up or scratched!! The sound is undeniably perfect. 

  This is a real audiophiles dream!!

This is an album you should buy and hide, it can only increase in value. 

It is a rare asset!!

All Postage and insurance for the final price will be paid by myself. 

 The record will be sent in a heavy duty record postage sleeve
