Has anybody ever heard of "Potato Leaf Climber"?

Hi all,
I was talking with my dad the other day about a tomato that my grandfather used to grow. He called it "Potato Leaf Climber". Has anyone heard of this? My grandfather was from southeast Michigan where he spent the majority of his days in the garden with cheap wine and Pall Malls. My recollection of the tomato is a large (1-2 lb.) pink, potato leafed variety. It would be great to find something similar for us to grow, while drinking better wine, sans the pall malls! I've got some Brandywine (sudduth) seedlings started, but i'd love some suggestions.
