Remove valves from a Ford flat head

Introduction
This note covers my method of removing the inlet and exhaust valves from a Ford 239 cubic inch V8 engine dating from about 1946. It was the first time I had attempted this operation.
Background
In the period 2015 to 2019 my two brothers and I restored a CMP Ford F60S LAAT in order to attend the 75th anniversary commemorations of the D-Day landings in Normandy.
