HC110 is supposed to be a relatively low fog developer. That might help a bit but I wouldn't expect miracles. If they were all the same expiration date, batch, and were stored the same way a test might make sense, however since they weren't every roll is likely to be an experiment that won't relate to any other roll. Other than that, you'll pay quite a bit for custom development, with no guarantees any place that/'s willing to take on the job. There might well be usable images on the film. B&W film older than that has been developed to usable images.

Any tips? My friend has 8 rolls of Tri-x that have been stored away (but who knows about various temperatures and stuff)

Modernage was going to charge her $22 each for D and C... (ouch) we both thought about her getting one roll done as a test

As it happens, btw, they were all taken with a Pentax 1000 I believe or a KX

What are the chances anything worthwhile could come out of them? Basically, they are pictures of her oldest daughter (I bet there is more than that in there) Any suggestions about processing them? I used to do all my own stuff, as some of you know, but never worked
on film that had been shot so long before developing.
