My father has an early 60s SW blued 38 that probably hasn't been cleaned in 45 years and has sat in all kinds of humid and unhumid conditions...
Looks old, but spotless.
I just used a .22 from the 1950s that looked like it had never been cleaned. Aside from a few scratches, stock and bluing looked really good.
I think gun finishes can take more abuse and neglect than people think.
