We have no reference to many of the names on the list and a few of them
appear to be corruptions of known varieties. ie.- Sterma (Sturmer
Pippin), Raymer (Rymer), Bunkum (Buncombe), Ben Davies Seedling (Ben
Davis), North Spice (Northern Spy), Stirmers (Sturmer Pippin) and Lodon
Pippin (London Pippin). Therefore, though many of the names on the list
are correctly spelt, we can't be sure of all of the names of the ones
that we have no reference to. However, it is still a very valuable
reference.

Some of the old catalogues and books give descriptions of colour and the
following, taken from "The Australian Fruit Culturlist" by Creighton,
thought to be 1891 may be of assistance in understanding descriptions-
Striped- When there are alternate broad lines of colour.
Streaked- When the lines are long and narrow
Blotched- When there are broad and abrupt markings.
Splashed- When the coloured markings are narrow and much broken.
Stained- When the markings are of a light shade and broken.
Marbled- When the stripes are wide, irregular and faint.
Clouded- When there are broad blotches of colour showing faintly.
Mottled- When the skin is thickly and irregularly covered with faint
dots.
Dotted- When there are more or less dots upon the skin.
Spotted When the dots are large.
ABAS Good quality eating apple, matures late January and throughout
February. Bi-annual bearer.
