To do all the things that Laurie mentioned, find some Wess full frame mounts
with pegs in them the sprocket holes fit over. This mount will show the
whole frame and will hold it very flat. I have used them in the darkroom
when masking 35mm slides. I believe that someone has bought out Wess but is
still making at least some on their mounts. Wess mounts were/are the
professional standard for audio/visual displays. I can look up the stock
number for them if you need it. The only drawback there might be to them is
that they are a little thicker than a standard mount so if you have a
scanner that is finicky, they may not work for you.

What do you mean by "good"? Oversized full frame windows, rigid mounts that
do not bend or bow, mounts that keep the film chip flat, or something else?
