Description

LED ZEPPELIN III

 

1970 1st UK PRESSING WITH THE 'PETER GRANT' CREDIT ON THE LABEL

 

Atlantic 240102 (later 1st pressings were hyphenated to 2401-002)

 

A5/B5

1st pressing matrix numbers

 

'do what thou wilt' & 'so mote it be' etched in the run-off grooves

 

 

 

Cover: VG. Laminated 'rotating wheel' cover. 1st pressing UK de-luxe cover with de-luxe printed on the front cover and on the spine. Inside has the the text on the right hand side - later pressings had the text on the left hand side of the inner gatefold. Rotating wheel works perfectly. Spine very good

 

Inside Cover: Poor - doodles as seen on pictures and a seam split I was a very enthusiastic Led Zep fan and in my naivety defaced this cover! 

 

Labels: VG Has the rarer 1st pressing 'Peter Grant' credit on the label - later pressings omitted this text, but side 1 has my named written on the label

 

Vinyl: Good Heavy duty 1st pressing vinyl. Nice sheen. There are two faults I have noticed: between track 3 and 4 on side 1 there is some noise (not affecting the tracks) On side 2  there is a scratch on the lead in affecting the first few lines of Gallows Pole. The rest of the side plays fine. Could be even better with a professional clean

 

I am not a professional dealer just a private enthusiast who is now changing to CD. These records were collected by me in my youth!

 

Any questions please ask i will do my best to answer them.
