A way to find lost pics with url?

Is there any way to find pictures with a link only?
About 20 years ago I was dumb enough to think that when a picture is uploaded it's there forever. Well, that wasn't the case.
I posted pictures of my then guitars and it would so awesome to find these pictures.
Those pictures were uploaded to a forum hosted by a guitar company, too bad links don't work anymore.

I have tried wayback machine with no luck.
I would actually be ready to give money to find these pictures, weird isn't it?
It's only guitars, after all.
If there was a way to find these pics a massive and long lasting grattitude would exist.
Fortunately I saved few links.
 
You could try searching for only the filename and not the whole URL, on the off chance that somebody mirrored it to another picture hosting site at some point over the years.

Does Lexis/Nexis do that—or just text?

Unfortunately I don't know what those are....
I went as far as asking the website mastermind whether they have those old files somewhere, apparently that data doesn't exist anymore on their end.
Too bad but only pictures were lost, nothing lifechanging. Also, some money was lost, those guitars weren't the cheapest. =)
But, live and learn, maybe I'll learn from this, maybe. =)
Still, any advice is welcome if there's a way to find anything....
