Stephen,
 
Modern Photography who owned the copyright on those pages went out ot business years ago. The staff of Modern went to Popular Photography, which has no relationship to what you see in that magazine today. So I doubt that anyone would stop you from putting them on your website.

Ed, do you have any issues with me scanning my photocopies and putting them up on my dusty vanity website for the use and amusement of our fellow list members?

Ah Ed-the golden age of photography. Before the advent of digital and the democratization of the poor image. 50s and 60s were a pretty good era for pugilism too.

Regards,

Marvin.

what is the time frame of the test you are referring to? I did the tests during the time 1957 to 1965.
