Default Curry tomato

Does anyone have any info on the tomato called Curry?
I can't seem to find anything on it at all.
Thanks.

Curry is a variety that was listed in the SSE yearbook (and may still be) - I acquired it in 1996 from an Ohio family named DeWeese (assuming it is a family heirloom). It was listed in the Red section but is definitely a large fruited, oblate shaped, regular leaf pink with fine flavor. They can grow to be whoppers - my feeling is that it is a type similar to the old CVs Ponderosa and Wins All. Victory seeds sells it (I sent Mike seeds a few years ago).

Thanks Craig
Very helpful. I have the 2007 yearbook but couldn't find anything listed in there.
