I have Bob Pond questions ..

1. When Bob Pond made plugs on the road was his mobile shop a van or a trailer ?
2. I've heard he parked along side the canal and made/sold plugs .. Where exactly was that location .. cape side ,,mainland ? Herring run ?
2A . In my pic the 2 atom 40's are different one has a round ball nose ,,, one is kind of flat .. I was once told one was made in the factory the other in the mobile shop .. True ? and wich is wich ..
I would think the radius nosed one was made at factory as it probably took more time and additional finishing if I had to guess. Mobile shop. Cool. My old boss drove a mobile machine shop in the Korean war. Camp to camp fixing things.
