Rings are slowly wearing out on every one but the top picture, last cylinder.  I don't see any obvious signs of a gasket leak between the individual cylinders. 

This happens over time to all high-mileage engines.  You can either fix the one cylinder and get along for another 50K miles or more as-is(most likely), or do a complete rebuild.  Or, just swap in another more modern engine if you have the money.
