With 25s + guards there was overlap, with 28s + guards there was considerably more overlap.
The era that the frame is from, it was probably very rare that people were running anything bigger than 23s.
Toeverlap is more of a problem with the guards than tyres as tyres just buzz your foot, mudguards get bent and rip out of their fittings.
I expect you'll be fine.
