I have a film editor who works for NBC in los angeles. If you would like for
me to contact him, I'll do so and connect you to him. He also collects film
industry memorabilia, and probably can connect you with someone who can
restore nitrate substrate film. This should be done asap, as it may already
be too far gone to be restored if it is putting off acetic acid fumes.
this is
just one component of decaying substrate, and is the one which erases the
image from the film.
Remember, the image is not a dye image totally but may contain silver which
is very reactive, and having acid fumes present from decaying
substrate doesn't
make for a long time line to act to save it.
