It will sort of work with a regular flat bed scanner. A pro style photo scanner is different in that there is a regular glass surface and the cover also has a glass surface and its own scanner arm that runs back and forth.

Here are yours with a little work.

The Bowerman was not a good enough scan to work with though you can see that his name was written in the original negative above his head. Once you start cropping and enhancing the color you can see the dust spots and negative scratches. I cleaned some of them up.

You are welcome. Having them in person and using a pro scanner would produce great results. You would be able to make prints from them. The halos in your scans are probably a result of them being two pieces of glass. A regular flat bed scanner cannot compensate for that. If you want to play around with them there are two tricks you can try.

1. Lay them on the flat bed, cover with a piece of white paper and use a flashlight and follow the scanner arm.

2. Lay them on the flat bed, shine a flashlight directly on the slide while you scan. Just remember not to stare during the scan. You could get cornea burn.
