Looks like a Burgess-Dunne Flying Wing ... one of them,at least.

Bingo!!
It's the Dunne swept-wing biplane; first developed as a tailless glider- pretty advanced design, and it looks like it flew! It also had washout at the wingtips...
Any idea what year this one was made? My source doesn't say...
