Okay
If your dates are correct, and I suspect by the sound of things, they are. Your smaller ones are certainly 35mm and anyone with a transmitted light scanner should have no problem, but as I said previously scan at 1200dpi (or more). The other slides sound like 6x6 and no they aren’t a glass slide – they are actually sandwiched between 2 pieces of non reflective glass to protect the actual film. Due to the physical size of these slides there are few scanners capable of scanning the whole negative. Notwithstanding the availability of professional scanners, with these larger slides you may want to remove the actual slide from the frame (one edge should click and swing out) and then possibly scan only the centre or most important part of the picture.
As for the colours they may or may not be able to be fixed with a digital
Photo’ programme. If not you may decide that it would be better to convert them to grey scale or sepia toned (the old brown coloured photos.
All the best
