Looks like it's ready to go. Was the chimney lined? Was the chimney even being used? Was it being used for a wood burning fireplace or an appliance vent?

Philadelphia chimneys are always an adventure John. But this one is nothing that a bucket of tar can't fix .

Re: look out below!
Yes I can imagine the dust is pretty thick in some of the corners of those old places. In my area, 50 years is old, 100 years old is a historical site, "heritage home".
Anything older than that has melted away in the rain by now.
We do get a few of the old ones and they are always an adventure.
When a client asks about a stain in the plaster on a 100 yr old house, I have to explain that the place has had at least four roofs and they were probably leaking before they were replaced, so yeah, there's going to be a few stains.
