Strange baler on combine video

While watching the video " 3 Massey-Harris combines at Little Casterton", I noticed an unusual IH baler baling straw. The bales were going up the chute width-wise, not length-wise like a normal baler. You can see it starting at 0:20. Has anyone seen one of these, or know what model number it is?

If you look close you can tell the bales are tied kind of like normal but are real wide with just two strings. You can see the plunger/stuffer working. It is as wide as the bales. I could not find anything even close in a short search.
 
McCormick F5-91 pickup baler. It made low density bales that could be pitchforked like grain bundles. Seems to have been a popular concept on the continent for a time, as there were several different manufacturers. I believe IH made this one in France.
 
I go to this event every year to commontate to the visitors on a trailer taking us to the various working machinery. The IH baler is a french built machine and we called the low dencity bales bats and the were used for putting on the potato graves to keep the frost out and keep the potatoes clean when the earth was forked ontop. Willie Chatterton is the man working the baler and this was the first time out since Willie bought it. When the vidio first starts you will see in the background a 1912 Mogul tractor pulling a large plough. MJ
