Rubbing to the head and tail of the spines with a little loss to the head of the spine of volume III and to the tail of the spine of volumes I and II. Light fading to the head of the rear board of volume I and a little loss of the red paper covering the front board of volume 2 near the spine Splitting to both sides of the spine of volume III at the head of the spine.
