Subject: Spine Labeling of Bound Serial Volumes

Has anyone come across the following situation:
A serial which originally had an incorrect volume and issue
number assigned to it years ago has now been corrected by
its editor midstream.  Unfortunately, the editor did not begin
the correction with issue 1.  This now gives us a volume and
issue number earlier than the one we started with.  For ex.,
we began the year with vol. 79 and are ending the year with
vol. 77.  We are now struggling with binding issues(e.g.
spine labeling).
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to best handle
this?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for
any input.
