    I only went to one car boot this morning but it was
    a local village garage sale that came up trumps with
    a big haul of rock albums at £2 a pop including Sabbath,
    Yes, Floyd etc, to find all the Led Zeppelin back catalogue
    in one box was a first for me.
    They were not the best finds of the glorious sunny day
    but I was glad I dragged myself up and out at 6am.

    All in lovely condition and an In Through The Out Door
    I didn't have which makes it 3 down 3 to go.
    Swansong released the LP in 6 different sleeves -
    you got it in a paper bag so never knew which one would be in it.

    There were several Who albums too,
    the smartest of the bunch was this UK first pressing with booklet.

    The sweetest of £1 garage sale finds (the guy literally
    went into his garage and pulled out a pile of LP's from
    a cupboard) was this beautiful UK original of their debut
    from '65, it's a keeper!

    The same pile had this boxed album sitting on the bottom,
    it even came with the original drumsticks,
    "I bought it for my son in the 60's but he never used it"

    Back of the box lists a mind-boggling amount of other releases on the same label

    Early 60's TV space show theme, I wasn't too fussed
    it didn't have the original picture sleeve
