The only exception to its otherwise all-but-unused condition is what appears to be some corrosion of the (aluminum?) back on the bottom border below the leatherette. The paint appears to be "bubbling up" but I expect it's the aluminum corroding while the paint still adheres to the metal. Has anyone seen anything like this before?
