Vintage Ford 1930's Film and Tins, they are complete with film inside.
Any information as to where I can research these will be greatly appreciated, I have looked anywhere possible hoping for some help here. I did not want to remove the film concerned about causing harm. I did look at one, and it look like some advertising photos. These were found in my parents attic, Dad was a collector and restored vintage Ford cars. Thank you so much
Really be interesting to find out what's on them!
The chances are the film inside is degrading and will need restoration.
I would start but following up with one of the national film archives to see if they are interested or even aware of these films. They should be able to refer you on.
I would also think about contacting The Benson Ford Research Center.

Yes before you even attempt to open them, contact someone as there could be History on those. They may need to be preserved professional to see what is on them.......Wow
Thanks for the comments, I will contact The Benson Ford Research Center.
The one I opened, looking in the light I saw a female in front of an old Ford. You have no idea how bad I wanted to look at them all.
Sent The Benson Ford Research Center a message and photo. Wish me luck!!
Bon chance!
Thank You
