Rare 1st pressing
LED ZEPPELIN III
Earliest possible 1st UK pressing on the red/plum Atlantik Label
Stamper Matrixes A 5 and B 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Their third album and one of the "must haves" for any serious collection. This is the very first release having the A5/B5 stampers and the "Do what thou wilt" and "So mote it be" engravings in the dead wax as well as the "Peter Grant" credits on the gatefold inner.
The Vinyl: VERY GOOD
The Vinyl is clean and shiny. Plays very well. Played and checked by seller. No crackles, bumps or distortions. Very slight scratch marks and hairlines when held up to strong light but this doesn't affect quality of the sound or play. The Vinyl sits flat on the turntable.
The Labels: VG+
Very clean, bright colors and no unwanted writing.
Very faint sticker Mark on side 2 label. As pictured. Sticker has been removed and no damage caused just some variation in the colour where sticker has been.
The Gatefold-Sleeve: VG+
Fully working rotating wheel, no splits other than an opening to the top but not repaired so as not to impact on the good working of the wheel. No tears. Faint marks to cover due to age but only on very close inspection. The name 'Gill Barham' written in blue to top right corner of cover. This is faded. Some yellowing tape marks to corners as pictured. Good spine, clearly readable. The inside is clean. No unwanted writing to gatefold.
Original Inner Sleeve: VG(+)
Plain white crisp inner sleeve. No marks or tears.
In case of any further questions please don't hesitate to ask!
I have fixed shipping at 7 GBP to anywhere in Europe and 9 GBP to the rest of the world. This includes the fees for "signed for/registered" and also Insurance to make sure the record arrives safely. It also allows to track it during its transit. The record ships from England.
The record will be safely and professionally packed to ensure safe arrival.
No returns accepted.
Good luck and happy bidding.
