Lorraine Beauty?

Boutique Tomatoes · September 20, 2011

Following this link to a russian site in the Icicle Series thread, the picture of the Lorraine Beauty (#137) variety caught my eye.

Google translate came back with this description:

Medium early, sredneroslye, beautiful variety. Fruits ploskookruglye, corrugated, like peeled tangerine slices, bright - red, thick, weighing up to 500, the winner of many exhibitions.

Anyone know anything about it? I can't find anyting other than a reference to Beauty of Loraine on tomodori which just leads to the name on ventmarin and no other information.

If it's really a medium early red with fruits up to 17-18oz and that fruit form, I'm wanting it.
