The best thing that could happen with 10 rolls of 120 Kodachrome
would be to put in the hands of a "Conceptual Visual Artist" (upper  
case initials intentional)
who truly understands the what the raw material IS
and could lock it into a relevant, beautiful and proper Work of Art
(possibly including a proper vintage camera as well)
