Big fruits, some over one pound each!  This excellent quality pear originated near Akron, Ohio in 1928.  Yellow fruits have slightly russeted skin and are quite large.  Flesh is fine-grained, melting and juicy, superb for fresh eating and canning.  The hardy, vigorous trees are very productive, bear annually and have moderate resistance to fire blight.  Fruit ripens in September.
