I have some old Kodak scientific film, number 2479, which went out of date
in the late 1960s.  It has been kept frozen since the date expired and
shoots well at ISO 200 as opposed to the ISO 320 that is the Kodak rating.
This is when processed in D76 according to the temperature and time
specified by Kodak.
