P3D Need help with camera and viewer

["Mr.Lizard" <mrlizard@xxxxxxxx>]

    I have a short story, and then some questions.
    This morning, I visited a local antique show and purchased a camera and
a viewer.  I don't think that I paid too much for them, but neither can be
used, as is.  Hence, the questions.  I'd like to fix them up and see if they
are any good.  I may decide to sell them, if they're salvagable.
    Please keep in mind that I am not a photographer, and still know very
little about cameras and viewers.
    The viewer:
It's a black plastic Brumberger, in the box.  I opened it up to see what
size batteries to put in and... Lo and Behold!  It already HAD batteries.
Very old corroded ones. (The 30 cent price was printed on them.)  Nearly
every internal contact has a great deal of rusty corrosion.  These contacts
are riveted to the housing, so can not (presumably) be removed.
  Question #1.  What is the best way to attempt to clean off this corrosion
so I can test the viewer with my Realist slides?
    The camera:
The camera is a Revere Stereo 33.   The camera's condition appears to be
very good.  Of course, we all know that appearences can be deceiving.  I
have no idea how to work this camera, nor do I know what additional
information you'll need, to help me out.  So if you need more info (lenses,
shutter settings, etc.) you'll have to tell me where to look to find it.  I
tried clicking the shutter a few times.  I tried winding it and it felt as
if it had film in it.  Winding seemed to work, until I hit some snag. ("Oh
No," I thought, "not the end of an old roll of film!")  So I opened it and
peeked in, real quickly.   Yup.  There actually IS an old roll of film in
that there camera!
  Question #2.  Is it possible that I could remove the old film, and even a
few of the shots might have survived? (That would be too cool. The viewer
and camera were reportedly owned by the same person.  I know it's not good
to presume, but I'd guess that the film's been in the camera for as long as
the batteries were in the viewer.  If A=B and B=C, then the film's been in
the camera since D cells cost 30 cents!)
  Question #3.  How does one rewind film in a Revere Stereo 33?
  Question #4.  Can anyone provide me with a photocopy of the camera's
instruction manual?
  Question #5.  Any suggestions on how to test out the camera, providing I
can get the old film out and the new film in?  I bought some 24 exp. Elite
Chrome 100, to test it with.  (I'm not looking for wonderful quality.  I
just want to see if it works.)

I know it's a lot to ask, but I also know that you are the right folks to
ask.

Please feel free to post answers and suggestions directly to my email.

    I am sincerely grateful,
