I recommend the Maes shape bar, have them on my bike, still got a bit of a ramp, but the bar itself is nice and flat.
Bear in mind it's very long, those old handlebar shape were designed to ride on the hood of the handlebar, rather than the hood of the brake levers.

Yup, reach could be an issue, but might still be worth a shot.
Your oak/talbot is lovely. I've been looking into using centre pull brakes with separate pivots on another bike, although cantis/v's are an easier option.
