problem is, most cookers go from green to yellow as they mature. Looking at the late 1960s Scotts mailorder catalogue, apart from Bramley, they sold Peasgood Nonsuch, Howgate Wonder, Blenheim, Crawley Beauty, Lanes Prince Albert, Edward VII, AW Barnes and Newton Wonder, Annie Elizabeth and Monarch as recommended cookers. They had one of the largest ranges for sale so an old tree is more likely to be one of those ( unless the planter was a rare variety collector or a pip grower) |
