Wish there was a Fuller Brothers date .. not sure when early 40's is ..
Seems in just a couple of years everyone is working with the same body style .. No internet ?? can't be just a coincidence . What if Fuller Brothers went out of buisness and the unrigged baits landed everywhere. They were out of Buzzards Bay .. Didn't Bob Pond use to work out of a van around there..

Just remember back in them days the surf crowd traveled alot..NY'ers were here almost all summer off an on..teacher's,,fireman with lots of time off...plug's built here made their way home with them and visa versy..thing's got swapped, traded,,ho'ed alround....ideas got copied[borrowed] shapes got fattened,shortened,longer...soon things began looking like everyone had the same mother....someday maybe someone will find all the paper work from the past and make liers out of us that are living today.........
yes..Bob started out in a trailer at the canal camp grounds.

Here you go, tagger.. One of the Fuller bros on the left, and one of the atom family on the right, with the plug building crew in the picture.
