Yes when I saw the shots of the Comet 1 (single large wheels) I immediately thought 'square windows'.
For many years on the fire burning area at Farnborough there was a Comet fuselage which was supposed to be cocooned but some of the cover had been removed to show Air France markings; used to drive past it every time I did a runway inspection ('70s/'80s).
Thankfully it was removed before it was burnt and is now hopefully preserved somewhere..
