LED ZEPPELIN - IV

Original UK LP

 Atlantic 2401012

  UK original on the plum Atlantic label. Very rare variant with the Peter Grant credit as executive producer. This is the second press of the Peter Grant version without the inverted feather. This copy is in nice collectable condition, tough to find like this and plays superbly well.


The sleeve is in a wonderful excellent condition. The spine, corners and seams are really solid with only the slightest of rubbing. The only negative is some very light sticker removal wear top left on the front.

Comes with the rough textured inner sleeve with flipbacks. There is a small tear at the top on one side, and a two inch split on the bottom seam and another two inch split on one of the side seams. This inner sleeve does not have the photography credit.

The labels are in a wonderful near mint condition. There is no spindle wear and very few short spindle spider marks. Looks to have rarely been played.

The record is in a wonderful excellent to excellent plus condition. There is plenty of original sheen and very few signs of being played. Under normal light it looks pretty much mint, under extremely harsh light i can only make out some wispy paper scuffs and a couple of tiny scuff marks. There are no feelable marks and the playback is absolutely superb as you'd expect from such a nice condition record.

Please note that we grade all records the same whether they are 40 years old or 1 year old.

Our grading is strict so as not to disappoint, we have been selling on ebay since 1998 & know how important this is. Grading of records is done with the record angled under two 50 Watt halogen bulbs. Pictures are of actual item up for auction.

Near Mint
Almost mint. Very minor paper scuffs and very little else can appear on the vinyl. This will most likely have occurred during packaging, or removing the record from the inner sleeve but obviously it had been handled with extreme care. Any flaw should be very hard to see. The cover should look as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and/or age. Minor impressions to the cover (due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside) may be acceptable, however the artwork should be as close to perfect as can be.

Excellent
An excellent condition for vinyl will allow minor scuffs (Scuffs lay on top of the grooves) which are visible but only slightly.The wear should be minimal.The play should be close to perfect as well. Some impression to the cover (minor outer ring wear) but no ink wear. Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show a little white, meaning slight wear. No seam splits or writing on the cover or taped repairs.

VG++
As Excellent but with a larger number of scuffs, maybe a couple of hairlines (very light scratch that can't be felt) or a couple of marks on both sides. Sound quality should still be very close to that of an Excellent record with only minor crackle in quiet segments only, NO scratches that can be felt. Cover as Excellent but there may be a small seam split on the cover, or a very minimal amount of writing like a name written in small writing or a number. A VG++ record should be an acceptable record to live with if you aren't looking to pay the price of a Near Mint copy.
