I am not familiar with old negatives, so my advice is this: check all the
negatives and see if at least one if them has written signs, if so, you could
easily tell which side is the emulsion side. BTW, there could be some other
thing that could indicate which side is the emulsion, i.e., landmarks, traffic
direction (in UK), wedding ring, etc.

Perhaps the best piece of advice you could receive, beside being careful
handling them, is to make a good scanning of those negatives, befor eyou start
manipulating them.

Good luck.
