Remarks: Scions from Benj. Buckman, Farmingdale, Ill. 4/5/02
In 1924 doubt was expressed as to identity of
the fruit, especially because of discrepancies between
specimens and painting of Jour. No. 45390, but
apparently such doubt disappeared in after years.

Characterization: Size medium to good; roundish conic - 
in some seasons slightly oblong conic, some fruits
tending to be truncate; regular except indistinct ribbing.
Ground color yellow, nearly overspread with bright
red in better colored fruits; sometimes indistinctly striped
Dots variable, mostly minute, whitish or yellowish,
inconspicuous, others as minute raised points.
Cavity in 1924 was shallow and saucer-shape, this
being main discrepancy compared with painting No. 45390
but in 1927 Cavity and basin were given as
medium, flesh slightly tinged yellow, fairly fine
grain, fairly tender, sprightly subacid but with
no characteristic flavor - probably a good (over)
