LOL .It's not a Capt Bills. It's one of the oldest Atoms made. The lip wasn't very good metal and many you will find that old will be rusted or rotted off.I have several of them a couple from Bob that are even marked Pond pending on the belly before he called them Atom.Nice one to put on a shelf. You'll notice the hooks are thin compared to later models. Sometimes they would come apart and it would become a double hook instead of a treble.The ones made the next yr were listed as Atom pending on the belly. Plus colors changed a bit. Hope this helps.
