I think a lot of times they licensed the soundtrack for the initial broadcast(s) only. Home media wasn't a thing in the 60s for video.

Good point. Very unlikely it was licensed outside the UK even after home video started.

I think they showed it on PBS

As I understand it though, the typical way this would happen is through a new and/or separate licensing agreement (in this case for PBS, and for a different region, etc.)
