There is no way the storage medium survived all of that time in a dump. If it made it that far, it’s probably crushed, turned to rust, or both. It’s a lost cause.
In the mid 1980s I visited a landfill as part of a school project. They took a back hoe and plowed over a mound and pulled out legible newspapers from the early 1960s. A kid found a working radio. You might be surprised how well some things get preserved in landfills.

That sounds rad we visited a steel spool factory and they didn’t let us take one home.
They let the kid take the radio because he said he could fix it and they wanted to distract us from the box of playboys also uncovered by the backhoe.
But it’s very much luck of the draw.
The “what if” probably wouldn’t let this guy sleep.
