As Ron mentions, it is possible to pick up harmonics of the main current existing FM stations. Harmonics that are most likely to be picked up are half of the current frequency. For instance, if a station broadcasts on 99.5mHz it might appear at 49.75mHz on your radio. Divide the current frequency by 2 and you will have the likely frequency it shows up on your radio dial. I do not know if anyone ever made a converter to convert the 88-108mHz band back down to the 42-50mHz band. If there are any, such a converter would repopulate your FM band with lots of stations.
