here ya go Larry ... This is all i have .. The flatter nose 40's were trailer made along the bank of the CC Canal ,, I believe close to where BSP is now .. The more refined round nose 40 was made in Attleboro shop . I don't have (looking for) a trolling model wich is visaully straighter shaped on the tail ,,wich is tail weighted ,,. I stole the Jr. for 50 of epay .. It always puzzled me these early 4 yrs. of Atom wood went so cheap on epay ..9.99 - 19.99 .. unless it was mint in the box .. see what happens now ,, Pleez correct me if any of the above untrue ... all word of mouth .. God Bless Bob Pond ..

Yea Larry .. never had them all together .. now that I see the pic and just checked plug ,,I believe the top one is the Troller ,, fatter and straighter line on the arse .. not sure ,,, weighs 2.9 ... others 2.7 ,2.4.. Could just be wood weight inconsistent .. |

Here are some old A-40's from the late 50's w/ a couple of my repros and some early 70's A-jrs & the plastic version A54B(blk) with 2 copies of the jr & 54B. We can't forget the infamous Atom blue/white popper.I think everyone I know had one in their bag or boat growing up.
