Or is it accepted practice to use these photos if the copyright holder is acknowledged? I would be using them in a completely non-commercial way.
On the other hand if permission to use the photos is required how do I go about contacting the copyright owners? Can anyone enlighten me please?

The late Jim Peden used to sell copies of his own photos at model exhibitions, etc. I assume that purchasers of such photos are entitled to dispose of these copies, but not for use in commercial publications.
