Unveiling the Enigma: The True Identity of the Man on Led Zeppelin's IV Album Cover
The identity of the elderly stick-carrying man on the cover of Led Zeppelin's "Led Zeppelin IV" album has been revealed after more than 50 years. The man is believed to be Lot Long, a thatcher from the late-Victorian era. The discovery was made by Brian Edwards, a visiting research fellow, who found the original photograph with the handwritten label "A Wiltshire Thatcher." The photograph will be exhibited at the Wiltshire Museum next spring.
