Polaroid 664: bad batch or bad back?

[malinmalin]

Hello!

Trying to proof my light setup I put a polaroid back on my blad
loaded with polaroid 664 b&w but upon peeling the paper
I see that the sticky stuff is all in one corner and obviously
the paper just develop in that corner. So far all first 3 polaroids show the
same thing. Looking at the expiration date: 11/2007. I had a old
batch with exp 12/2006 that did the same thing yesterday.

Is it possible that the back is not 'spreading' the sticky stuff as it should
when I pull out the polaroid or do I have a bad batch of polaroid?

thanks!

Stupid me!
So after removing the polaroid pack in a change bag
I noticed a nasty piece of cardboard stuck between
the roolers of the back: the developper wasn't
spread evenly when pulling out the polaroid hence
my problem....

sorry for wasting your time,
