This is a great story and I'm glad you posted it.
Who DID steal it? Hard to believe that not one clue has revealed itself after all of these years.

A black probably took it.
A black dog, that is.

It was an inside job. They didn't want to pay taxes. I thought this was well known.

Led Zeppelin made use of an intricate network of businesses that spanned the world to reduce its tax bill for its 1977 US tour, signing the band members up as employees of a Dutch business owned by a company in Curaçao, a Caribbean island, which was in turn owned by a foundation headquartered at a bank in Switzerland. This structure allowed a significant portion of the band’s ticket income to leave the US without being taxed.

Obviously the culprit(s) went in through the out door to pull off the heist.

LZ played three nights in Madison Square Garden in 1973. End of the tour. Band had $200,000 in the hotel safe deposit box that was stolen. SO.....
who are the likely culprits? It was never recovered.
Obvious suspect was road manager Richard Cole. He put the money in the safe after the last show at the MSG run. He said when he went back it was gone. He passed an FBI lie detector test and continued to work for the band until the end.
Had to have been an inside job by a hotel employee/organized crime

Peter Grant is believed by many to be the thief. Bob Spitz wrote in the Zeppelin biography that 5 sources told him that Grant had admitted the theft to them. Who knows!
