If this helps, below are some pictures of a NOS two ply sponge Jostam recoil pad with original box and paper envelope with tacks inside never opened. There are some loose tacks that were in the box when I bought it so you have an idea what you may be getting into. The box does not have any instructions though.

The pictured pad looks like the base is either missing or it has been attached to the sponge parts. I have removed these pads in the past and Jim's idea to cut everything off except the base and then glue a new sponge pad onto the base is a good one. The base does not seem to deteriorate on these pads.
