Default Any hope for a 40 year old tape reel?

Would you have used 1 7/8ths for recording a prom?

And I operated the Ferrograph which logged NASA in the studio. At 1
7/8ths. Quality didn't much matter though. Still might have some of the
triple play 7" reels used which were disposed of after. No use on pro
machines.

I once had a Chilton (remember those?) with 1 7/8 speed.
