Led Zeppelin Press Kits

BBC Sessions Atlantic Records Sales Booklet: This is a promotional 12 page black and white
booklet issued by Atlantic Records upon the release of the BBC Sessions album to promote the sales of
Led Zeppelin’s back catalog. Pictured are various live shots of the band along with covers of every
Zeppelin album, along with pertinent catalog and sales information. These were only sent to buyers at
large music stores or chains, and the majority of them probably wound up in the trash several months
after they were distributed. $34.99

1969 Led Zeppelin I Reproduction Press Kit: Almost 22 years after it was first printed, Atlantic
Records reprinted Led Zeppelin’s first biography and released it when the 1990 Box Set came out. From
the notice that accompanies the deluxe folder with the band on front: “Considering the extraordinary
musical legacy embodied in the Box Set, we thought you might like to share our fascination with this bit of
rock ‘n’ roll history.” This press kit includes a glossy 8 x 10, band bio, Zep I preview/review, and also a
press release from 1968 announcing the group’s signing with Atlantic. Originals sell for over $100.00, so
this is an easier way to add a quality reproduction to your collection for a fraction of that price today
$19.99

Atlantic Records In-House Newspaper: You had to be an employee of Atlantic Records to receive
one of these in-house newspapers called “The Atlantic Weekly, and Casbah Post-Dispatch”. This August
9th, 1973 edition has four articles on the front page, and two of them feature Led Zeppelin. One of the
Zep articles is all about the Starship, Led Zeppelin’s personal touring airplane! The other article focuses
on the band’s last three concerts of their 1973 U.S. Tour, which took place at New York’s Madison
Square Garden. (The Rolling Stones are also mentioned on the front page, with news of their upcoming
European Tour.) Like other industry magazines and in-house publications, most of them are printed in
small quantities and discarded soon after their release. And since Atlantic Records personnel were the
only recipients of this tabloid, their circulation was VERY small. Here’s a chance to add a really tough
promo item to your Zeppelin collection today! $39.99

Atlantic Records April Album Reviews: This is the March 26, 1973 edition of Album Reviews issued
to promote upcoming releases on the Atlantic, Atco, and Asylum labels. At the top of this release sheet is
pictured Zeppelin’s 5th album, Houses of the Holy with the original Atlantic SD 7255 release number. It
closes its album review with “Led Zeppelin continues to confirm its position in the “superstar” rock
pantheon with another precedent-setting recording.” Other releases for April 1973 included Yessongs by
Yes, Bloodshot by The J. Geils Band, Larks’ Tongues in Aspic by King Crimson, The Spinners by The
Spinners, Live by Ray Charles, Inner Space by Chick Corea, and more! Finding another one of these
dated release booklets could take a very, very long time. $24.99

Coverdale / Page Original Promo 8x10 Photo: This is a genuine promotional 8x10 photograph which
came right from the files at Geffen Records; it was released in 1993 for the Coverdale/Page album and
shows a posed shot of both David and Jimmy. This is not a reproduction; you can tell when you see and
feel this quality mat finish photo up close; it actually has a slight tint of gray to it (rather than bright white
which is seen on all the glossy reproduction 8x10s) due to age. $3.99
