Would You Use a 40 year old NOS tube.

Here's the story.

The bike I recently bought came with a few extra tubes. It hadn't been ridden since about 79. I pumped up the original tubes yesterday to about 100psi. I rode it a few miles and hung it up in the living room overnight. 5am and the front tube let loose and popped. Woke everyone up but Thomas(teenage son).

the rubber is still pliable and not dried out. Would you run these tubes?
