What varieties of period apples were you thinking of with those 
characteristics?

James Prescott suggests:

>Braeburn.  Royal Gala.

Why? They are both tasty apples, but why do you think they are 
similar to period varieties in general or period pippins in 
particular?

What do we know about period applies, other than the particular 
varieties that are still available? Do they have any consistent 
pattern?
