Default old mount

I have an old mount that is about 20yrs old... it was my father's best deer but it is coming apart at the ears... the skin is very dry and flakey and split perfectly in half right down both sides of the ear tips... i'm afraid of it getting worse and i will do anything to salvage the mount.. and suggestions???
