Does anyone know the model history of Durax cranks ?

I'm trying to date a picture (of a Flying Scot frame - what else) that was thought to be taken in the 1930's. One recognisable feature is the cottered Durax cranks with the cloverleaf pattern (or should that be "club") chainwheel. I am interested to know if these particular cranks can be tied down to a definite era or if in fact they are just a generic Durax design.

p.s. I'd love to show a photograph of the whole frame including the cranks but I'm waiting permission from the owner/copyright holder.........
