Led Zeppelin’s 1977 North American tour was scheduled to play in Buffalo New York on Saturday August 6th. Due to tragic passing of Robert Plant’s son Karac the concert was cancelled. One of the items that was to be sold was this “Summerfest” At The Stadium pin. The pin has also been reproduced and below are images of both an original pin as well as a reproduction. The first image will be an image of an original example.
The following is an example of a reproduction pin. The main noticeable difference between an original pin and a reproduction pin is that the band’s name Led Zeppelin is in a brighter shade of blue than on the original pin. In addition, the text is not as crisp on a reproduction pin. One will also notice that each members symbol are also not as crisp (Robert Plant’s feather symbol).
