In late 1960 Harris, Scarfe Catalogue, a slightly different version of the

The significant difference is the height adjuster ...
it is in a different position - rearward - and has been simplified.

The rearward one seems the more modern, suggesting a change to it in late 1960,
and following an emerging style trend for height adjusters.
