I'll put money on foam latex like a lot of the old horror masks, I have an unused new nightmare hero hood and all the edges are dry and just to touch them they crumble almost into sand
I think the best thing you can do to further preserve and take full advanttage of enjoying this rather than it be shut away in the bag and folded is to contact a guy called Tom Spina , he specializes in preserving these old movie masks and displays and will even make a custom armature for it to sit on so you can display it fully as it should be
If you can't find his site let me know and I'll find the link for you
great score mate
