Wonder if this will grow into a copyright lawsuit by someone who claims ownership?

The story details how the original photographer was located and when offered the slides, declined.

 

“At some point, as she rummaged through the boxes, she came across a receipt from a film developer made out to Yuriko Tomita, who turned out to be a fashion journalist. She searched online for the name and eventually tracked down the Tomita family, who said Ms. Tomita’s son, Kishimitsu Hada, had shot the slides. After a fire in Ms. Tomita’s apartment, the smoke-damaged boxes were put out on the street. The family didn’t want the slides back. Ms. Tomita died in 2017.”
