I'm not sure why but these kind of lost-archive-found stories fascinate.  What a treasure!  Thanks for the cue.

It never ceases to amaze me just how robust film can be, even in the worst conditions. There seems to be an increasing stream of historically valuable finds from 100yrs ago.

Thanks for the pointer.
