I bet it could be scanned and restored.

My wife brought a bunch of old, damaged photos from her home country and I did high res scans on them, spent some time in Photoshop restoring the image and had them reprinted at Costco (when they used to offer photo prints). They came out pretty good!

60+ years ago we didn't think any of our photos were rare. So we lashed 'em down in our albums with whatever we had.

60+ years later, we now know better.
