Lovely ring! The little opal (?) is beautiful! Could it be a Polish mark? Looks somewhat similar to this (although I can't find anything that fits...
Great, sounds like the smell was in the folder rather that the negs! Glad you managed to clean it up without too many problems :-)
You can (carefully) wash negatives in clean water, then hang to dry - lots of tutorials online (for those of us who like to develop our own film)....
Such a sweet baby :). The second photo looks like a postcard... is there anything on the back? Postcards can sometimes be dated quite precisely...
The baby photo is precious!!! As someone else pointed out, not everyone could afford to update their wardrobe, or they just stuck to older...

Researching stuff is fun, isn't it? Takes time though, but you learn so much. I'm waiting for a bundle of photos/papers to arrive that I just...
No idea about the authenticity of the ticket itself, but I'm inclined to think the event did take place. The book that bakersgma linked to has...
