I have seeds for all of the ones quoted above, including Purple Dog Creek. A few of them might be older seed from 05 or 06 but should still be good. The Marz Green would be from WI MI B 07, and I've never gotten around to growing it out, but you're welcome to some seeds from that pack.

West Virginia '63 - 2010, 50 seeds, original seeds from WVU 2009
via mjc

edit:
(I have Vilina seeds from 2009, too, if you want to test its
late blight tolerance with a few plants outside next year.
It is noted in one document that I found online as having
late blight tolerance, but according to Carolyn and Tom
Wagner there is more than one variety of late blight
in the wild, so the only way to know whether it has tolerance
for your local race of late blight is to grow it and see.)

Sherry and Patty,

Thank you so much for all your pictures for TOMATObase. I will do my best to upload them ASAP.

I also promised Craig to add the information about the newly releases dwarfs from the Dwarf Project.

Klaus-Peter Schurz from Germany contributed 500+ pictures of his tomatoes - I already processed them.

This is an awesome help with the TOMATObase project, thank you everyone!

I updated the master list with all the offers up-to-date.

I think I will wait for a few more days, and then will let everyone know who I'd love to get seeds from.

Tania,

I had hoped to have more of the seeds you are missing. Can send Magnum- 20 seeds-Heirloom Tomatoes purchased September 2007. Also Polish (Ellis)-15 seeds-2009-sase offer from Kath @ Tomatoville.

I believe I can help you more by sending in an order for seeds.

From the look of your "needed" seeds I need to expand my planting beyond the Brandywines, Cherokee Purple etc. Will put together an order.

Regards,
Len

Aunt Ginny's Purple- 7 seeds; 2010 my bagged seed that grew true; from trade with kygreg
Gold Medal- 80 seeds; my bagged seed from 2010; from trade with heirloomdaddy
Jujube- plant growing this year from seed train swap in 2010; no seed yet
Levino- 50 seeds and growing this year; swap exchange source skyblue52 in 2010
Orange Minsk- 40 seeds from Linda Black in 2010 and growing this year
Tarasenko6- 5 seeds from trade with ostara in 2010 and growing this year
The Dutchman- 6 seeds from trade with OneoftheEarls in 2010 and growing this year

I will help with the tomato base and have some seeds on your list, but I think most of them you already have offers for but will list anyway.

I updated the master list with the last 3 offers.

I am thinking I will use colors in the master list to indicate who I'd prefer to get the seeds from - i.e.:

red - 1st preference
green - backup

Will this work?

I will PM everyone my mailing address along with the requested seed list.

Tania

Thank you Adam, you are so kind! I marked you as my first choice in the master list, as it looks like many folks were offering the seeds that originally came from you.

Tania, just saw Maryland Large Red in bold. I'm growing a plant this year from Wintersown and will be saving seed- no original seeds left over, but they were from Wintersown.

Also have a Doubloon plant that is producing the right size and color fruit- seeds from OneoftheEarls.

I'm assuming that bagged seed is not a requirement, correct? Some of mine will be and I can mark it as such, but at this date, some will not be.

Tania, actually I sent Burning Spear to Adam as well as the Orange Minsk.I offered his seeds of Buring Spear since my saved ones were not all giving the correct color and Adam graciously sent some back for my seed offer.

As a back up to Kath I may have some Large Maryland Red around, old seeds but probably lots of them. I'll look for them when I look for Kiev and that won't be until my brother comes up here from NC for his Fall visit b'c I'm not having Freda put all my seeds back in that room on the card table that sits in front of the sofa sleeper that he uses as well as under that table, under that table that looks out to my gardens and well, everywhere in that room, until he leaves.

And am I confused, probably, but I thought Serendipityis one of the Dwarf Project varieties that hasn't yet been released yet, but I'm going just on memory for the nine that now are in the public domain. Or is it Sarandipity with an Sa that I'm thinking of?

I'm sure someone will set me straight if I'm wrong and do it ASAP.

Carolyn, there is Serendipity (above) - the dwarf variety which I named for my daughter is SArandipity (for Sara)! Sure, why not have a little more confusion!!!

We were posting at about the same time and in my post I said Sa or Se b'c I knew darn well you'd named one of the dwarf varieties, not yet released with an Sa for your one daughter.

I guess I don't know Serendipity, but then there's a lot I don't know.

Ah well, time to go wait for Martha to bring the groceries and see what's good to munch on while I do some needed paperwork, hoping for some bing cherries.
