Autograph lyrics from the closing of Led Zeppelin's classic song 'Stairway to Heaven,' penned in black ballpoint on the reverse of a vintage color glossy 3.25 x 3.25 candid photograph of an unknown couple. Plant writes, in full: "To be a rock & not to roll, Robert Plant." In fine condition, with thin diagonal stains. Encapsulated by Beckett Authentication Services.
First released on Led Zeppelin IV in November 1971, 'Stairway to Heaven' has never left the cultural consciousness, logging more classic rock radio airplay than virtually any other song in history. That Plant chose this particular line—the song's emotional peak and philosophical heart—to put his name to speaks volumes. Defiant, paradoxical, and utterly unforgettable, it remains the perfect closing statement from one of rock's greatest voices.
