Yum, I like that tomato, Shay. I'd like to have a big cheeseburger with a nice fat slice of that tomato on top. (With a slice of onion, and lettuce, and some ketchup and mustard, that is.) Is that tomato extra big due to the fertilizer in the soil? That name, James G. Tinsley might be the Richmond gentleman who was a pioneer in the fertilizer industry. (We are talking way back here, the dude was in the Civil War.) After he left the fertilizer industry he was involved in 'other businesses' and I wonder if one of them was growing produce?

Yeah, yeah, I view all these lovely vintage crate labels from California, Florida, Georgia, Texas and Louisiana. One would think that in the USA there were no farms in the Northeast back in the day.
Jersey tomatoes & corn time has come. I had a Jersey tomato sandwich for my breakfast.
