Aerial photography - Ancient Gallery

A conventional two element Band I array, with an unusual four element Band III unit. The swept back Band III elements are very smart, and no doubt the salesmen of the time spouted much nonsense about their superior performance! The build quality appears to be very good, with cast element clips and an unusual square-section boom. The Band III folded dipole appears to be coupled directly across the Band I active element. As I was taking this photograph the wind changed and the array swung majestically through 45 degrees or so, suggesting a loose mast clamp. If anyone knows the make or other details of this array I'd be grateful for the info.
