Truck bed traveler

While going down the interstate saw what appeared to be a camper that fits inside a truck bed and overhangs the truck cab. It was aluminum and appeared to have an airstream logo on the front. Did airstream make something like this or is it a home made camper? Liked like late 50's or early 60's.

couldn't get the prior link to work. Truck campers were Avions, not Airstreams.

Eastern South Dakota is very pretty with hills, rivers, and trees.
