Environment...humidity perhaps, a closet with non-moving stale air, smokers in the area? Those older flips, especially the softer ones I question as to PVC content, quite possible if put up in 80's/90's or earlier. If it's PVC, you is sunk, give it a bath in acetone over nite, wont hurt, may just save it's life.
