These are LP-2J Neptunes operated by Antarctic Development Squadron
Six (VXE-6).
Image 1536 also shows a C-54Q and C-121J operated by the same folks.

Neat stuff!

Thanks Bob, Thats exactly what they will be. They were taken at Harewood
Airport, (Now Christchurch International Airport) Christchurch, New Zealand
probably in the late 50's early 60's. Operation Deep Freeze ran from that
field. A friend sent them to me along with some pictures of a Connie and a
couple of Globemasters. I might see if I can get the originals off him and
clean them up and do some new scans
