What did I find here? It appears to be a Pop R but the mouth is different but doesn't appear modified. 

Definitely looks like a Pop R to me.

Looks like a P70 to me.

 

I found this doing a search:

I have an old Rebel Popper like that . Mine is  larger than a Pop R . It does not walk . It chugs . I use a feathered rear trebel on it and chug it around standing timber on hot sunny summer days, making as much noise with it as possible . Its a good way to catch numbers at Mark Twain lake but not big fish .

 

I did catch my largest spotted bass on it in the timber at Table Rock  but I wasnt chugging it . I was waking it with a slow steady retrieve , pushing a wake out in front while creating a slight shimmy .

That’s an original. They changed the mouth years back. My favorite popper

That's a great find. 

Looks like one of the magnum sizes. 

PRaDCo.   I never knew what that stood for.

It stands for buying good brands and ruining them. 

@Bluebasser86I had one just like it in the early to mid-80's; it was a Pop-R knock-off sold back in the early to mid-80's.  I can't remember the brand or even if it had a brand.  I think I got it at a K-mart in the Michigan UP in a kit.

Poppers were not common lures in northern Ontario in those days (that I knew of) and this was a real oddball for me. 

In these days of Megabass Pop Maxes it's hard to imagine someone making cheaper Pop-R's, but it was done.

I think that's it. It even had the crusty old hooks on it. No telling how long it had been hanging in that tree.

That's a possibility. This one doesn't rattle and didn't look like it had a feathered hook on it unless the original owner changed the back hook. Use to be quite a few K-Marts around here until they all died off.
