Covers have slight wear to extremities and bindings feel slightly shaken but are still strong and holding. Hinges and joints of the other volumes are similar to Vol. VI in that they feel somewhat loosened but they are still holding. Stain (about 1" x 2") on back of Vol. I. Vol. IV has what appears to be faint pencil or pen scribbles on front. The loose plate in Vol. IV is a black-and-white circular diagram naming the different scientific classifications of mammals and is laid in. Each volume of this set is Very Good.
