*

Record condition:  Good?.  This record has been handled and is in fair to good condition only. It is playable, will not skip, but will be noisy at times.

We list this record ONLY because it is a scarce Led Zep collectible that many people would like an opportunity to own.

It is suitable to help fill out a collection until an upgrade comes along, although upgrading this record isn't easy and certainly isn't cheap. 

In spite of its condition, this record will satisfy many collectors.

*

Cover condition:  Fair only.  The bottom seam is split, top seam split and held with old tape, the cover has staining. (see pics)

*

Notes:  Original US promo only pressing with white labels.  Features excerpts from Led Zep I and the Dusty Springfield album "Dusty in Memphis".

Issued by Atlantic to be played in record stores, and played it was!  This particular copy got a ton of play and was probably found lying about without a sleeve more times than not.  But still, this copy has survived and is playable, and will fill that empty spot on your Zep shelf.  More pics available if needed.

We begin the auction at a low price with no reserve. This collectable album needs a home!
