What about the 'Rutgers' Tomato?

The ‘Rutgers’ Tomato was introduced in 1934 by Rutgers breeder Lyman Schermerhorn as an ideal canning tomato at the height of the canning industry in New Jersey. Not only did this provide a top performing tomato for New Jersey’s canning industries Campbell’s, Heinz and Ritter, but continued to be the preferred choice of 75 percent of commercial growers for the remainder of the twentieth century, with worldwide use.

Although no longer grown commercially, the Rutgers tomato has remained popular especially with home gardeners. The ‘Rutgers’ tomato is available through many home garden seed catalogues, although as an open-pollinated variety, there now are several strains available.
