There is a very clear image forming if you do try this technique at your computer/desk
1. Enlarge The picture to full image
2. While sitting at chair, bend your head to bottom of the screen, and the image will come quite clear, as the background ink/color all becomes solid, and the image is "carved"....
having looked at this, I am "Speculating" it is a Loc. Monster, given Jimmy's interest in it early on...
OR it could be another Mythical animal?
Finally, from this technique above, it is clear that it is NOT a symbol of any kind, but just an image of some "animal" related to Western Myths....

Of course! No problems. It looks like it shall remain a mystery until someone gets a better view. Now I'm looking at it in different adjustments in PS and it appears it could be triskelion....
Interesting...
.....and thanks for the earlier Talisman Mystery you solved ...if you know any more details keep us posted....I enjoyed corresponding on this thread....
take care, and sorry for any confusion...and I think this mystery has appeared here before too...
(I think there could be another possibility of the said symbol...acquired in/around '67 Trip to India...I will look into this ancient dynasty symbol...later..

Strange that there's no connection made to Semitic roots in the link you provided...
...It was for script purposes only...
And just to clarify, I don't think anyone is assuming Page was wearing THE swastika symbol most commonly attributed to the Nazi regime, just that if it was A swastika or something that looked like it, then people would have made that negative connection regardless of what meaning it had to him.
tks for clarifying....but as you know various responses highly "suggest" so...
:D ...
:D -
Fascinating! There does indeed appear to be a swastika on the medal to the right, yet it's rather like looking at one of those blurry b&w prints of the Loch Ness Monster! Perhaps a clearer image can be found to verify this, or an eagle-eyed collector of
World War II memrobilia can discern what medal it is.
....I was responding to this particular symbol in question, next to the Black Cross...It does not match up to be a "Swastika" script...
sincerely, PlanetPage
:D -
I'm not disagreeing with you but aren't you assuming it is a Hindu symbol? That was never insinuated unless I missed it a few pages back.
.....The Swastika is a origin of Hinduism Symbol, a symbol of Sun, first letter of Hindi Alphabet, the Letter KAH as in K....
I took over this thread from the magnified picture onward...as to whether it is a Swastika? or A Monster?...
For that matter, it could be anything else as you suggest, you may be right, but finally, I would say, it is not a Nazi Germany Symbol, representing the Swastika...as I understood...
Medhb...we are just trying to solve this...no disagreements...
:Dthanks for helping...
-
Aha!! It looks Celyan! To me
...as I said in my previous post MEDHB...the Swastika can have most 4 endings...top/bottom,
left/right...please look at the picture pattern....it does not match up... (compare the most shapes)
sorry for any confusion...as language often is....

Jimmy has recalled going to India alone when the other members of The Yardbirds opted
to go to San Francisco instead. This trip would have been circa August 1967, consistent
with around the era the photo was taken. Perhaps he acquired it there? The mystery continues!
...Tks for responding...
I am aware of of this trip as per previous discussion a while ago...It is very possible the necklace could be acquired there, but IT IS NOT ACQUIRED for the purpose of Swastika....The construction of the script/letter "KAH" as in english "K" absolutely does not match up....(It is the symbol of Sun, first letter of the Hindi Script)...I have posted some more details in another post...
Thank you again,
sincerely, PlanetPage

No interuption! Hmmmm, I'm not seeing what you are trying to point out but fascintating link if a little over my head as far as language skill, LOL!
What we need is someone better than me with photoshop or some other program that can capture a clearer image of the pendant. I had to change some of the levels to bring it out and it does appear that it could be one of the other versions of the symbol. I'm quite certain it is, look at it from a few angles....
TIA
The Symbol has two many Arms/Legs extending for it to be letter K in Sanskrit/Hindi (This letter represents Swastika)... (Sorry, I knew it just by looking at first glance, and when I looked for the letter Kah (K)...it appeared to be something else, as in some sort of picture...
The Swastika can have most is 4 Top/bottom, left/right side...the symbol in question has two many...
It is NOT a swastika...I hope it helps...

sorry to interrupt, but I have looked at very closely, and...
From my knoweldge, ( I am fluent in read/written Hindi) the symbol DOES NOT appear to be a swastika, in fact, I am most certain it does not represent the Letter in Sanskrit, it is just a Loch Ness Monster...The ending does not match in Sanskrit/Hindi.... (the symbol, anyhow, represents the letter K in English, and it is the First Alphabet of Hindi Language....

On that note...I find it really cool that Jimmy is wearing his talismans again. I, personally, see this as 'good things to come'. Jimmy's revving up the power ; )
Medhb...tks for revealing this...I asked about this earlier, over at Hot pic's of Jimmy....Can anyone explain a little more about this particular piece? tks.

The Book is:
REX
Collections (includes rare, unpublished images from the archives of Rex Features)
Led Zeppelin, by Ray Tedman
Red Collections: Led Zeppelin gathers the finest images of the band, painstakingly scanned and restored from the original prints, negatives and transparencies hled by Rex Features of Britain (independent photographic press agency...)

Majority have been scanned over time, already, but ones that are scanned here today, not seen before...
It has one pic of Jimmy with Yardbirds (a yardbird posing with umbrella), Jimmy sitting on stool...in front of the group (I think I seen it, but it is color, so I can scan it, if not scanned)

heard a guy in this show threw a bottle at robert while he was singing and so he mixed his warning to this guy while singing i can’t quit you babe i'm gonna put you ... you down for a while cuz you’re messing up a good concert you silly fool you must’ve been my one desire if you think you’re really very smart, then you better come right up here and do that thing again hear me talking to ya ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh you think you’re really smart i suggest you come right up here and do that simple thing once again. after the song, robert addresses the loser after thanking very much the crowd and telling them what a pleasure to be there in the public hall that night and says to the guy and we’d like to welcome our friend he’s so used to throwing coconuts in the fairground, he doesn’t really know
heard overall fantastic show esp page's rendition of white summer and bonham playing a jazzy swinging heartbreaker
....tks for this piece....History in the making....I hope fans like him have come to terms with themselves....I can't imagine, history in the making, and "I threw a bottle at Robert Plant".....
