Description
Obviously this poster is concurrent with the 2nd pressing of the LP (both 1969) – when the lettering was switched from turquoise to orange. As Jimmy Page explained at the shop- the printers, accidentally used turquoise for the band’s name on the front cover – instead of the orange he’s picked on the colour wheel (they are complimentary – opposite- colours).
This is an original shop display poster – not a retail version. The later retail versions are larger- and have the band name across the top and text credits in fine print along the bottom. Scarce I’ve only seen one other offered for sale $1000
Provence : from the original owner who confirmed “yes, I’ve had it since 1969” – around the same time he acquired the first album. His girlfriend worked at the record dept in local WHSmith’s and would supply him with promo material for Led Zepp, Hendrix, Black Sabbath.
Condition : 28 x 191/4 inches = approx 71.5cm x 48.5cm . VG++ : Obviously 50+years old -paper size, stock and patina. Condition : top right = tear around pin hole which has been reinforced with acid free tissue on reverse. A few minor stains. Other flaws can be seen on reverse – Blu-tac residue etc but nothing that detracts too much from the iconic image.
