try wiping them off with a wet cloth or q-tip. stronger solutions you could try are to use a mild soap or white vinegar then rinse
Test this method on a area that is not showing like on the edge of the canvas first


Oil paintings of sixty years ago where usaly covered by a coat of Copal varnish, I would use rubbing alchol to try and remove the specs, use it gently with a q-tip and do not soak the painting, take the q-tip and place it in alcohol and blot it to remove the excess, using a trwirling method gently work the stain in one direction then the next, do not use pressure, remenber you just want to remove the stain not the finish, you may have to use several clean but damp q-tips to accomplish this, take your time and remember you can ruin the painting by not treating it with care. Or have it take to a professional art restorer.
