These are tins with film reels marked NBC News. I think I got them as part of a auction box lot in the Albany, NY area in the 1990s (they looked old then). Reached out to a few NBC news folks via LinkedIn; no responses. Should I: 1) trash them; 2) develop them; 3) get them to someone at NBC news?
Four circular tins, shot from the top down, with the NBC News logo and various categories (show, title, cameraman, library no., film type, footage). Film Type reads "7242," footage reads "100."
