You don't get additional protection by slapping a GPL on the scans. The
only "protection" that might be involved would be protection against
warranties, but since that doesn't really apply to pictures, that point is
moot.

So I don't really see any good reason why they shouldn't be PD. Since none
of us can claim that our creative work went into their creation, it would
be kind of strange to claim any copyright to them.
