LED ZEPPELIN - I
Original UK Plum Atlantic 2nd Press LP
Atlantic 588171
Original UK 2nd press on the Plum Atlantic label. Still in decent collectable condition
Housed in a fully laminated sleeve in superb excellent condition. This is the rarer sleeve variation with the silver strip along the bottom, supposedly a leftover from the turquoise lettering 1st press.
Both the labels are in near mint condition with no spindle wear and just a few short spider marks. The labels have Warner Bros. publishing credits.
This is the A1/B4 variation with corrected matrix on side one only.
The record is in a very solid vg+ plus condition with plenty of original sheen with some ultra light hairlines and paper scuffs on side one when viewed under a very bright light source, whereas side two is in excellent condition. Playback is great.
Please note that we grade all records the same whether they are 40 years old or 1 year old.

Our grading is strict so as not to disappoint, we have been selling on ebay since 1998 and know how important this is. Grading of records is done with the record angled under two 50 watt halogen bulbs. Pictures are of the actual item up for auction.
All records are packed securely & most importantly packed outside of the picture sleeve (in a plain inner sleeve) so as to avoid seam splits during shipping.
Near Mint
Almost mint. Very minor paper scuffs and very little else can appear on the vinyl. This will most likely have occurred during packaging, or removing the record from the inner sleeve but obviously it had been handled with extreme care. Any flaw should be very hard to see. The cover should look as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and/or age. Minor impressions to the cover (due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside) may be acceptable, however the artwork should be as close to perfect as can be.
Excellent
An excellent condition for vinyl will allow minor scuffs (Scuffs lay on top of the grooves) which are visible but only slightly.The wear should be minimal.The play should be close to perfect as well. Some impression to the cover (minor outer ring wear) but no ink wear. Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show a little white, meaning slight wear. No seam splits or writing on the cover or taped repairs.
VG++
As Excellent but with a larger number of scuffs, maybe a couple of hairlines (very light scratch that can't be felt) or a couple of marks. Sound quality should still be very close to that of an Excellent record with only minor crackle in quiet segments only, NO scratches that can be felt. Cover as Excellent but there may be a small seam split on the cover, or a very minimal amount of writing like a name written in small writing or a number. A VG++ record should be an acceptable record to live with if you aren't looking to pay the price of a Near Mint copy.
