I'm thinking maybe somebody has indeed "messed with" this one. Check out photo #9. Looks to me like the rear wheel is off center and one of the cantilevers is clamped higher on the stay to compensate.

(But those are the brakes I've been trying to remember. They're the ones that one of my friends put on his track bike back in the 1940s so he could ride it on the street. They simply clamp on, no drilling. I could use a few of those today.)
