Led Zeppelin IV – Untitled (1971; SD 7208) LP Monarch Pressing

$

30

Get your rock on with this vintage Led Zeppelin vinyl record. This 1971 Monarch first press matrix label variant LP features the band's untitled release on Atlantic Records.

NOTE: All records I list are from my personal archive.

They have been shelved upright in a clean, cool dry, smoke-free environment. Attempts to capture a clear photo of the record condition has proved fruitless.

Because of this I'm grading on the low end to insure the buyer the best accurate description for the most enjoyable listening experience. Sound quality is excellent and playback is flawless unless otherwise stated in description.

*The vinyl is graded as VG+ with some minor light superficial surface scuffs and hairline marks. Side Two has tiny spotted pitting throughout but is only a superficial anomaly that does not affect the quality or sound of the record. Labels are in EX condition. The gatefold sleeve is in VG+ condition with some ring/shelf wear. There is a Columbia Record Club (CRC) Stamped on front right bottom corner but not on labels. Does not include the original printed inner sleeve. This original cover edition is a must-have for any rock music enthusiast and is sure to be a prized addition to any vinyl record collection.
