To me your front derailleur is either a bit high or twisted, but maybe it's just the picture angle. Here are some pics that I tried to take straight on to help from a similar vintage derailleur that if have. I took pics from all three gears so you can compare spacing. I also took a pic from above, sometimes with these old derailleurs I pinch the front end slightly, you can see it in the last picture. It seems to help. The big difference though is that I'm using a friction front shifter which lets me micro adjust my shifts.
