Very rare in a such condition Monarch's copy of Led Zeppelin II with Robert Ludwig's hot mix mastering. Side 1 - ST-A-691671-MO-CC T RL SS MR in Circle LW "Delta"13933 W AT; Side 2 - ST-A-691672-MO-CC MR in Circle LW RL SS "Delta"13933-X W (2) AT. Sterling Sound Mastering with the "SS" handwritten abbreviation in the runout on both sides just like the "RL" initials. I think that the Monarch pressing is the best combination among all of the Robert Ludwig pressings. Cardboard gatefold cover is in a very rare superb Near Mint Minus condition, remaining in the original shrink wrap and having a combination of hype stickers, a "Whole Lotta Love" sticker on the front and a "This Album Contains" song title sticker on the back. 1st print Atlantic Records labels in Mint condition having the Broadway address and SD-8236 catalog number. I'm sure many would grade the vinyl visually as Excellent, but I'll be more conservative and grade it as Very Good Plus due to it having a few super light hairlines and scuffs from the paper inner sleeve. The vinyl has an outstanding clear sound with a punchy bass and plays great.
