Depends on two things:

- How well they were processed and packaged in the first place.
- How well they were stored.

Some of mine are now junk garbage. Others are pristine. Same for Kodachrome.

That's why I'm intent on scanning them all into the digital space as
soon as I can. Once they are simply numbers in a file, they never
change again.
