Wow, these are amazing photos! Thank you so much for sharing!
As to locations, I would guess:
1. Near Mesquite Sand Dunes (I think the Cottonwood/Marble "gate" is visible in the background, with Cottonwood Benchmark to the far left).
2. Looks like right around Badwater, from the kind of rocks in the background which are typical of the Black Mountains.
3. Aguereberry Point (guessing based on what higher altitude touristy spots folks were likely to have traveled to at that time)
My grandparents visited DV in the early '60s, if I recall correctly. Your post has reminded me that I've been meaning to ask my uncle if he has scanned the film from their trip.
