The key point here is the frame numbers. It was customary to cut roll
film into single frames and pop them in a little glassite bag with
the prints, at this time, especially with negs this size where the
standard print would be a contact print.
It's a big roll though - I'd guess Kodak 122 - as used in the old
Autographic folders or something of similar size. Not what a pro
would use though - are they professional shots?

Jamie,
Sounds like 9x12cm, the european counterpart of 4x5in.

I just was given a set of B&W negatives (my parents' 1954 wedding) that are
in a format I don't readily recognize.  The actual image is approx. 3"x4"
and the negatie size is approx. 3 1/4 x 4 3/8.  Each is marked "Kodak Safety
Film" and has a frame number.  There are no sprocket holes and no film type
designation.

Any ideas as to film type and format?   Thanks.
