Oh goodness. Led Zeppelin II, original Robert Ludwig pressing - contains the initials "RL" in the deadwax (area just around the label). Sound verified.
A Led Zeppelin II with the initials "RL" in the deadwax is unanimously considered the Led Zeppelin Holy Grail, and any collector's pride.
His pressings are widely known for unmistakable quality, booming sound, and the feel of a recording studio.
That is, grabbing a "GP" (George Piros) is a nice find; owning a "RL" is the true gem of any record fan (please google "Robert Ludwig" or "Bob Ludwig" to confirm this data).

The centre labels are identical, including the printed matrix numbers "ST-A-691671-MO" and "ST-A-691672-MO" at the bottom of the centre labels. This indicates original record pressing at Monarch Record Manufacturing Company.
Record is in excellent condition, plays without "cracks" and "pops" while on a quality record player.
