That's illegal (fraudulent misrepresentation?). The National Archives could not transfer the copyright to Getty, because it was not theirs to transfer - under US copyright laws just about anything done with public/government funding must be made freely available to the public.
=========== That's what I thought. So that selling was is in a government archive is illegal. Because it is supposed to be free. Well, not sure about that, but it sounds right. The copyright stuff has to be illegal.
