From what I understand, Herb himself didn't have the actual artwork for these albums and had to get help from others to scan old LPs and then remove the A&M markings. Universal probably hasn't a clue where the old artwork is.
I doubt if the copyright on the image is out of date, but they are probably held by A&M and as such Universal doesn't care. Many times the copyright is held by the photographer and licensed to the label for use on the cover, if not purchased outright by the label.
