When did the Bee Aircraft Company start?

I took a photo of one of the pages (drawings) and attached. Original photo is 2.3 MB but too big to post so reduced the size.
A company, here in Australia, were selling them (paper work from 1958)
The plans have patent pending 1959.

I think that is not correct. I built a gyrobee by Ralph Taggart. That was 2000 or so. These plans are from the 50's early 60's.

Attached is a photo from about 1960 of Mr Dorn in his gyro.
Bee Aircraft Company in Melbourne (Australia) were selling plans and instructions on how to build from the late 1950s
I (ASRA) have the drawings (couple of pages), I just took photo of one sheet.
There are two lots of drawings, Bee Aircraft Company and Benson drawings that were given to us by his son who was tidying his late father's things.
Mr Dorn purchased plans in 1960 and started building soon after.
