Led Zeppelin S/T   (LP)       Atlantic SD 8216   (Stereo)
Zeppelin's iconic debut album.
Original 1969 US pressing (matrix suffix RI, i.e. Richmond, Indiana pressing plant issue).
1841 Broadway, New York labels.
Characteristic of original pressings, the jacket back wrongly cites the run time for the final track ("How Many More Times") as 3:30 ... but in fact it plays as 8:28.
Side One label:  ST-A-681461RI Side Two label:  ST-A-681462RI Matrix / Runout (Side One):  ST-A-681461-A / AT / W  (hand etched) Matrix / Runout (Side Two):  ST-A-681462-A / AT / W  (hand etched)

Vinyl:  NM

High gloss.  Few light superficial surface marks present but have no significant impact on sound.  Faint surface noise audible between tracks and during some quiet passages, characteristic of Atlantic wax of that era.

Labels are bright and clean.  No spindle marks.

Jacket:  Near Mint 

The jacket looks just a bit shy of "like new".

Top and bottom seams are nearly flawless.

Spine in "like new" condition, with crystal clear print.

No splits, labels, writing, stamps or barcode.

This is a primo original US pressing of Zeppelin's classic debut LP.  You will be hard pressed to find a finer copy that is not sealed.  Hoping this one goes to a good home. 

My Profile / Policies:

Music is my passion.  I’ve been a collector for more than 50 years and have thousands of records in my personal collection, focused largely on 50’s and 60’s rock ‘n’ roll.  Recently retired, I look to downsize and sell select portions of my collection in hopes of financing future purchases of a few special pieces.  

All records I offer are from my personal collection, each cleaned using my Nitty Gritty Record Cleaning Machine.

All are play graded (not just visually graded), employing Goldmine Price Guide standards.

As I take great care to accurately describe my items, I do not accept returns unless my item description is incorrect.

All records are packaged with the wax outside the jacket (to avoid seam split in transit), enclosed in a plastic sleeve and shipped in robust record mailer boxes via USPS Media Mail, tracking included.
