Notes

'Plum' Atlantic pressing on red/white/plum label.

This is the 5th (of 8) known 'plum' label variants. Specific to this label are:

'Marketed by Polydor Records Limited' at 6 o'clock on labels.

'Under license from Atlantic Recording Corp.' in white area under Atlantic on left side.

Led Zeppelin is printed above spindle hole, Variation 3 had a printed label in smaller type-face, and Variations 1 and 2 had the band name printed below the spindle hole in the 'plum' section.

Catalogue number at 3 o'clock above circular Atlantic logo reads 'deluxe 2401012'

There is no Peter Grant credit on the label but the printed inner sleeve still retains the Executive Producer Peter Grant credit, and song publishing credits are:
Kinney Music Ltd./Superhype Music Inc.

Side 2 has the following error: 'Misty Mountain Hop' is misspelt 'Misty Mountain Top'.

This release was commonly referred to as 'Led Zeppelin IV', to follow in sequence with their previous three releases, but no actual title appears on the release.
