Short 14/38 "STRATOLINER"

Did this aircraft actually exist? I am looking for 3-view drawings, photos, specs, etc. of this experimental high-altitude air liner which further development was abandoned due to the outbreak of WWII.
Superficially, it resembles the DC-4 prototype. A line drawing I have shows the civil registration of: G-AFMX. I have googled several sources but to no avail. I do not have access to the Putnam publication; "Shorts Aircraft since 1909 blah blah.." so I am looking for any substantive information on this aircraft. Thank you in advance...
