Converting 70 year old film

Today I spent 4 hours in total photographing and cropping 200 of my Grandpa's pictures from between the 50s and 70s. His images were taken on transparency film, the type that is visible when backlit by a projector or viewfinder. I spent 15 minutes creating a clean set to start, then lined up the transparency viewfinder with my digital camera lens. Then I individually removed and inserted all 200 slides, focusing, exposing and taking a new digital image every time (this took 2 hours.) After this I imported all the images into Lightroom and cropped each image separately which took another 2 hours. Here are some examples of my Grandpa's Photography.
