'Than' tomato

[Linda10]

I received seeds of 'Than' tomato as a gift from SSE member TX GU R in 2008 with no information included.

I would like to grow this one out but don't want to waste my few seeds without knowing what to look for. Does anyone know if it is red or pink, rl or pl, approximate size, shape, etc.?

I did some searching but never came up with any information. Thanks for any help.

Linda, the above links are correct and I double checked the past Yearbooks to confirm it.

What Michael Gunn listed was Tan Tom, not Than, and since the seeds originally came from Don Branscomb in CA ( CA BR D) that's probably why it has a name like that b'c he bred many varieties with names such as Cancer, Turkey Chomp and other "interesting " names.
