If they were taken in the 1960s by someone in their 30s who lived to 80, that means we probably have roughly another 60 years until these are free from copyright and you can actually publish them in a magazine.

I'm surprised the magazine let them publish as much as they did, given the lack of concrete copyright provenance.

Just think how many historical books and pieces of art and photos we could archive and sort and look at if copyright didn't last literally longer than a human's lifetime.
