all this talk made me dust off my object and take a peek. the base says 217/1000, LED ZEPPELIN, PRESENCE, and the 1976 copyright. always just assumed it was a replica as I bought it back in my college days (early 90s) and can't imagine me having any real $$ to shell out. are replicas out there with the same details? any tell tale signs one way or the other?

the bad news is that it's a bit chipped. nothing too terrible but I guess I shouldn't paint the bugger either.....

It is copyrighted by Swan Song. It's cast into the originals on the topside of the base.
