The first six of these volumes are bound in cloth and backed in faux black leather (Skivertex); the last five are bound in full cloth. Cloth color changes from volume to volume. Slipcase color matches cover cloth. One side of slipcase discolored on Henry V volume. Several volumes have slips laid in which are signed or inscribed by Haberman, including one to both of his parents (1975) and one (1978) to his father. Some later volumes are inscribed to members of the Sendor family. Daniel Haberman's Wikipedia entry describes him as "an American poet, translator and graphic designer" and states that he was "instrumental in founding the American Poets' Corner at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City where he was that Cathedral's first Poet-in-Residence, from 1983 to 1986." Wikipedia also reports that he was the graphic designer on 16 Shakespeare volumes so this is not a complete collection of all of the annual Shakespeare volumes designed by him.
