Struggled with photo shop for a couple of hours last night but can't find a way to blend the edge of the scanned frames with the black background as you suggest. Any ideas on a way that would work?

Use the rectangular selection tool to make new layers out of each frame, select all the layers then go to Edit > Auto-Align layers.
Then Edit > Auto-Blend layers.Boom.

You want the black frames to "bleed" a bit into the photos so there's no hard edge?
I don't get why you'd want to do this, but you could have the black backround (without the images) as a selection, give a bit of feather to it (select > modify > feather), and fill it black via paint bucket?

nice but I'm confused about the lines... the ones that you made in photoshop - I understand scanning full frames at a time and not the whole strip, but don't you at least have the edges, even if you have to construct the width? ie. can you scan (slightly beyond) full frame without cropping? if you ever print it would make a bid difference... otherwise I'd be tempted to fake a little softness on the harsh edges.
