My hat's off to ainitcool.com, but to correct a guess made on that page, the camera is not simply blimped for sound, it's a blimped three-strip Technicolor camera.

Here're some more pix of old Technicolor cameras:

Many thanks for sharing those fabulous documents with us !
I especially love to see the great Jack Cardiff in front of his Technicolor camera, that's great.
A lot of thanks again and all my best wishes for 2014 :-)
