Volume III: Medium-sized (1.5 inch x 1.5 inch) section of leather missing from top of spine. Leather is cracking along spine-bands and spine edges. Volume IV: Leather is cracked through at spine-bands, two thumbnail-sized pieces are missing, and the top two sections cordoned off by the spine-bands are now flaps (have separated at the back edge but not the front). Volume V: Leather on spine is heavily cracked; top fifth of spine is missing a section, bottom fifthof spine is cracked wide open, leather over spine bands are cracking. Rear cover is breaking off. Interior hinge is still good, but back edge of spine leather is starting to break. Volume VI: Leather is peeling off of spine in all sections; top section is missing entirely, half of the next section down is gone (with most of the title information).
