Remarks: Scions from N. Y. Sta. 1902
* Specimens from Arlington in 1925
were discounted as being Fall Pippin,a mistake
having apparently been made.  It was a medium
sized oblate to roundish-conic, greenish apple - 
somewhat suggesting Rhode Island Greening.
If it was Fall Pippin the specimens for some Basins
were more oblate than normal.

Characterization: 1926 & 1927 notes: Size large, roundish,
roundish conic, some slightly oblate; occasionally
on approach to truncate. Skin collor [color], rather deep
yellow where fully ripe, usually self-colored but sometimes
a suggestion of blush.  Dots numerous, variable,
whitish, submerged, inconspicuous; others raised some
brownish considerably very fine leather cracking especially
about apex, cavity - deep, medium width, Basin deep,
rather broad, abrupt; sepals long,and painted; eye
large, mostly open.  Flesh yellowish, fine grain,
tender. fairly juicy, mildly acid, rather sprightly,
fairly rich; good to very good. Probably few varieties
superior in quality for its season. Prime
eating condition Oct 4/26 and Sept 8/27
