No one's kidding! An original 59' with the sunburst and flame-top can easily fetch 300-400k. Depending on condition and flames.

The flames on those 3 are not exactly that arresting, but still, they are the original 58', 59' and 60' sunburst LP. After all there's only around 1200 of these babies made and only, what, 600-700 are known to exist. IRRC.
So I guess it's still a reasonable price for the super-rich collectors out there who grew up idolizing Led Zep and wanting to recapture some part of their youth; by owning an original 59' and pretending that they're Jimmy Page.

If you want to check out some really stunning examples of 58'/59'/60' sunburst LPs, I really recommend this book called Beauty Of The Burst. Some of the flames and figurings on those sunburst 59' are really to DIE for! It gave me so much gas.

You can find it at the Esplanade Library.
