Description

This album is being sold by the original owner.  The gatefold has never been opened and shrink wrap is still intact. 

The untitled fourth studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin, commonly known as Led Zeppelin IV, was released on 8 November 1971 by Atlantic Records. Produced by guitarist Jimmy Page, it was recorded between December 1970 and March 1971 at several locations, most prominently the Victorian house Headley Grange.

After the band's previous album Led Zeppelin III received lukewarm reviews from critics, Page decided their fourth album would officially be untitled. This, along with the inner sleeve's design featuring four symbols that represented each band member, led to the album being referred to variously as , Four Symbols, The Fourth Album, Untitled, Runes, The Hermit, and ZoSo (which was derived from Page's symbol).[2] In addition to lacking an album title, the cover featured no band name, as the group wished to be anonymous and to avoid easy pigeonholing by the press.[3]

Led Zeppelin IV was a commercial and critical success, producing many of the band's best-known songs, including "Black Dog", "Rock and Roll", "Misty Mountain Hop", "Going to California", "When the Levee Breaks" and "Stairway to Heaven". The album is one of the best-selling albums of all time with more than 37 million copies having been sold[4][5] and a 23x platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It is the fourth-best-selling album in the United States.[6] Writers and critics have regularly cited it on lists of rock's greatest albums.

Albums will be shipped USPS Media Mail in a LP mailer and packed with a new plastic cover sleeve and new record sleeve in addition to all the original album componets. The record assembly will be packed between cardboard blanks and space filled with bubblewrap.
