Don't laugh ! I've just found a plastic bottle of liquid glue in our garage with the price of 5/6d marked on it. The bottle is three quarters full and still seems to be flowing OK.

Is it still likely to be effective after all these years?

If it's still liquid, then it's likely to be a glue that sets by evaporation - so it should be perfectly OK. But as Dilligaf says, why not try a small amount? Just a dab between two pieces of paper?
