Description

Hi All, the thinning out of my collection continues and I’ve sorted out a few more choice cuts in the collection for your consideration as well as a few ‘vinyl staples’ for the discerning new entrant to collecting.  For your consideration we have: 

 

Title: LED ZEP 3 by LED ZEPPELIN      

 

Cat No: 2401-002 – STEREO  

 

Issue: Original 1970 issue on the RED & MAROON ATLANTIC Label – 2ND Press

 

Vinyl Condition visual: Visually, the vinyl grades as VG+; it has retained some of its gloss and a little of its sheen.  The surfaces to both sides have a few light marks and a few very, very light scratches, however these are all non-feelable and pretty superficial and do not affect play and all commensurate with age and grade.

 

Vinyl Condition Playback: The playback grades as VG-; some audible static and light clicks and pops, with occasional louder clicks in places; aside from this however, there’s nothing too drastic at all although there is a slight lessening of sound quality in places when listening through with headphones on. Not too sure you’re allowed to listen to Zep with headphones on! The vinyl lays flat on the turntable and there are no skips or jumps.  

 

Label Condition: EX+; fine examples, very light, hardly noticeable spindle marks, aside from this there is no damage, writing or unwanted blemishes to the labels at all. The text is clear and legible. 

 

Cover Front: The front of this laminated gate-fold sleeve grades as VG+. There are a few very mild creases in places and a little light scuffing/rubs along the edges, all being commensurate with age and grade. Aside from this it is a very good cover with no rips or tears just age related marks and a few dings at the opening edge. There is a small white price sticker top left.

 

Cover Back: VG+; the laminated back shows signs of a little ring-wear and has one or two mild creases again all age related and commensurate with the grade. Inside the gate-fold cover is clean and damage free, but one of the inner-edges is lifting – see photo.  This is easily repaired.  The wheel device is in full working order.

 

Spine: VG+; the laminated spine is intact and all of the text is legible; it has retained a VG square shape.   

 

Corners: VG; some mild knocks to all corners.   

 

Summary: A fab album and this copy is not too bad at all in terms of a package. Many of you know that, for some reason, finding ZEP albums in anything like decent condition is a bit of a challenge.  Whilst not in mint condition, this copy is more than just filler and therefore if you’re in need of a copy of this classic Rock album this copy will do the job nicely. It is a very playable and enjoyable copy that has been honestly graded overall as VG.

 

Postage: With regard to postage, all records will be posted in 12” Defenda- corrugated mailers so they should arrive as they left me. Finally, I offer a no nonsense refund if you’re not delighted with your purchase, less postage of course, which hopefully provides you with sufficient confidence to take a shot, and if you do, good luck.

 

Payment: Most unusually I have had a few non-payers recently; therefore, please only bid if you intend paying for the item in 7 day’s. Much appreciated.
