Description

This is one of the early red and plum labelled pressings of Led Zep's untitled fourth album, with the song Misty Mountain Hop incorrectly titled Misty Mountain Top on the record label itself. There are at least 7 variants of the label, as the record company and band struggled to print it correctly several times. This particular one is the fourth version - for a bit more info look at the following site to see how they struggled to get it right every time:

Pressing looks to be A3 / B3, but is a little difficult to read.
The vinyl is in good condition, playable with very few marks or scratches. The inner sleeve, always fragile for this particular album, is split across the base. I have not attempted to repair it, leaving that to the successful bidder as they think fit. Otherwise the inner is in good condition with no scuffs or marks. The outer, gatefold sleeve is also in good condition.
