That's a good tip. I'll retract the confident tone that I used.
I have a bunch of the U2 ERTS test flights, but none are 9x18 and they
aren't marked with ERTS information on the individual frames. BUT:
what I have is film, so maybe prints got labeled differently. For this
vintage, I think you should be able to tell visually whether theses are
photos or satellite images. ALL LandSat 1 false-color IR prints have
easily visible scan lines. If these are airphotos, they won't have the
scan lines.
Many of UCSB's NASA photographic ERTS flights have printed 'Flight
Summary Reports' accompanying them (which we have more of than we have
flights--some day I'll offer them up). Some FSR's are online, but many
are not. I'd love to know of anyone has a comprehensive collection. My
lastlook in WorldCat says no.
