Led Zeppelin - III
(Atlantic K50002 UK LP 1970)
This is a UK original "Kinney" LP pressing circa 1971-1972. This is when distribution in the UK for Atlantic changed from "Polydor" to "Kinney". This is also a transitional UK pressing. It has a front die-cut gatefold sleeve which has a moveable cog on the front. The sleeve js actually a UK original "Polydor" pressed sleeve. It has the "Atlantic De Luxe 2401 002" catalogue number on the spine. There is a circular "Kinney" factory sticker on the inner gatefold. This has the track details and has the Kinney "K50002" catalogue number on it.
It comes with its original company plain paper inner sleeve. The record is pressed on thick vinyl and has two sets of matrix numbers in the dead wax. It has its original Polydor distribution matrix numbers, but also its Kinney matrix numbers. These are the earliest A/ B matrix stampers. "Do What Thou Wilt" is still readable in the dead wax on Side 1, although it is quite faint.
Gatefold Sleeve: There is some light to mild rubbing wear to the top edge. There is some light to very mild fading in some areas. The cog is in perfect working order. VG++ condition.
Vinyl: Light to mild sleeve rubs can be seen when viewed under a strong light. There are some light to very mild pressing marks too. VG+ condition. There is a very small bit of label wear on Side 1. Otherwise, the labels show light spindle wear. Plays EX overall & EX+ in many places. A very nice audio copy. The company plain inner sleeve is in VG condition. There are a couple of small tears but there are no seam splits.Grading adheres to “Record Collector” specifications. I shall use good quality packaging (proper vinyl mailers & two card dividers).
