I do wonder, however, if more recent papers (2010 and forward) using that image were doing so as reference to older papers, or entirely contained to their own research.

I hadn't heard of this before this post, the pic is innocuous enough, i wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people don't even know that's a crop of an old magazine photo.
