I have a 1906 commercial that has been in a velvet lined presentation case for over 30 years. There were no synthetic materials used in the construction of the case. The finish of the pistol is excellent and shows no evidence of having been in a case of any kind. I am of the belief that many 'presentation grade' pistols are kept in their original casings for the entire duration. With regard to polyvinyl products, there was a coin collector I knew who bought a new line of plastic envelopes for his coins and within a year the coins became mottled.
