It reminds me of the 'Guppy' series of aircraft, used to transport wings and other aircraft assemblies.
My initial thoughts were that it looks like a mock-up for a French type, but have a look at the main landing gear - very like that of the HP Halifax.
 
I enlarged various portions of that photo here on the ipad (this thing is awesome for that), perhaps they might help a little...

Made a quick sketch. The thing that struck me most about this mock-up are those windows waaaay at the top...higher than the cockpit level...

Which made me think "double-decker" and French in particular. Breguet was my first choice, but I could find no project to match it.

But then, I found the Air Wibault 100....

And my drawing's nose was completely wrong!
