Hi Gordon, welcome to the forums!
Without seeing a photo of the pickup, it's difficult to tell but from the date you give, it's certainly possible that it might have originally come from a Rick lap steel (aka a "Frying Pan").
I've recently installed just such a pickup (although probably not as old) into the bridge position on my 4001 V63, with very impressive and satisfying results. They're great pickups!
