If it's one of the earliest, it will have value even as a wirephoto. Known as a historical artifact. It looks period and official to me.
Wirephotos with the caption in the image (usually at the bottom) are almost always from the date in the caption. The date is the transmission date. So the good thing about wirephotos is that they're usually easy to date. And as wire news of timely news, they usually are period to the image. There will be cases where they use an old image (obituary, anniversary-- which will usually/often be detailed in a caption), but usually the photos are period to the image.
