Most photo stores will have some kind of expired or close to expired films and papers that they sell with a discount. They are easily resurrected with a small amount of Benzotriozole. This stuff can usually be gotten in the chemical department.

I don't know about resurrecting old papers with benzotriazole--it's never worked very well for me. However, I am getting ready to move to a new house this Fall, and I have a lot of old paper that I need to get rid of. Drop me a line off list and I'll try to figure out how much I have and how much I want for it.
