LOL I should have checked when I took the pictures. I'll email my wife's grandfather (they're hanging on his wall) and ask him what the dates are!

I loved them on sight and he even offered to lend them to me so I could take them home and out of the frames to scan them, but I declined. I'm gonna see if I can refine my taking photos of maps technique (I've got a Nikon D90 which should be up to the task), and if I still can't get a decent resolution I'll take him up on his offer.
