This stuff is great! Just an FYI to anyone interested collecting tickets from Zeppelin shows: this website has the original printed tickets for the 1980 Chicago Stadium show that was cancelled (due to Bonham's death). They are framed with a certificate of authenticity, and look pretty cool. You can get a single ticket or a set of 4

If anyone wants to make me a (sensible) offer on this I may be interested so please PM me.

Hey Knebby,

Just joined and saw your message. First, I'd keep it if I was you. That's a very cool and unique item. If you do decide to sell, I know some big name Led Zep collectors (besides me!) that I can put you in touch with. All the best!

To everyone else, great stuff you have posted. I'll try to put up some of my fun stuff soon for you all to enjoy!

I have a copy of Led Zeppelin III on vinyl. Inscribed on the groove-less center part is " So mote be it." and then (1) one inscribed on the same side.. Does anyone know how much this first pressing is worth? I believe and I could be terribly wrong that this maybe the first copy of the firs U.S pressing ..... just a guess ..... if anyone has any info on this please let me know.

Only first pressings had the inscription and if the matrix # starts with SD it's a US pressing. Worth about $75.00 in EX/MT condition.

I collect books about LZ. I could read them for the rest of my life and still look for more.

Nice hobby. Since 3 years, I also collect the books. Most of them are affordable and it´s nice to see the postman several times a week. Do you have a list of your collection? Perhaps, I can find some books I don´t know about.

I composed my books here with some infos and photos.

Actually, no songbooks or tourbooks are listed

Mine is a pretty basic collection, I have two T-shirts (bought in the early 70's, I have a scrap book with concert reviews from Sounds Disc MM NME all that I collected myself at the time I have this awful 8 page program which just has LED ZEPPELIN on the outside and crappy black and white pictures on the inside, I have the three ticket stubs from the concerts I saw 2 at Liverpool (Stadium and Empire) and one from Earls Court of which I still have theprogramme from that one which isn't bad seeings as I hitch-hiked from London To Liverpool after the concert, it took almost a day, but I managed to keep the programme intact, on that day I took 35 photos of the concert and my mate took one of me outside Earls Court (Which one of my ex's snaffled, and yes you've guessed it all the ones I took on this crappy Zenith SLR inside the arena never turned out as the camera couldn't cope with the conditions indoors, but some of the articles in my scrapbook are pretty good, a bit yellow now. It ends with an article in the Daily Star stating that due to the death of Bonzo, that Led Zeppelin were no more.R.I.P.

Yes it was. Fortunately I signed on early got a reduced rate, the number I wanted and could make the payments over three months. It is so beautiful, if your ever in Des Moines, Iowa Id be happy to share it with you. biggrin.gif

Hello ZoSo1960--I would suspect that you and I are the only people in DSM,IA to own Jimmy's book!

That's some amazing vinyl in that collection. Just imagine the value of those records....do/have you listened to them?

Someone mentioned colored vinyl so I thought I'd post a reference. I haven't played any of my vinyl bootlegs in nearly twenty years.

They've literally been stored untouched and unplayed since the first Page/Plant tour. I always meant to get them as well as all of my vinyl radio programs transferred to cdr but never got around to it. Most vinyl bootleg recordings are circulating on cd by now anyway

so there's little motivation to do so.

I just saw one of those film can ones on ebay after having seen it for the first time here, that set looks really cool. Do you happen to remember what is on that one? I'm slowly trying to build a vinyl Zeppelin bootleg archive to listen to. Even if they are already transferred to digital, there's just something different about hearing them on vinyl.

Anyway, Zeppelin memorabilia I collect? My latest acquisition is a Led Zeppelin I picture disc. I overpaid by about 30%...but I wanted it. Sound quality is a little below average, but I still like it anyway.
