As far as buying very old paper I would do it only if its _very_ cheap.
I did last year and got relatively lucky. I got a huge pile of old paper
for the equivalent of two US dollars. Most of the stuff was obviously
much too old - for instance, some 1964 vintage Kodak Panalure, but I was
lucky enough to find a box of 8x10 Ilford MG IV RC and 5x7 Ilford MG IV
RC cooltone in perfect condition. There was also a package of 10 to 15
years old Seagull Oriental that turned out to be quite good, but recent
looking Kodak Polycontrast IV turned out to be severely fogged - I could
almost use the test strips as grey cards!
Now, if I buy some of this paper and find out that there is some minor
fog, how much potassium bromide should I add to my developer? Can you
give me a starting point in grams per liter?
