One of the best tasting of several varieties I was connected with, I am proud for my name to be associated with its development.
That's a beautiful tomato! I know that one (the dwarf) as "Sarandipity." I've been assuming (could be wrong, though) the one I have from Farmer Shawn is "Serendipity," a yellow/pink non-dwarf bicolor by Millard Murdock: https://www.tomatofifou.com/en/produit/serendipity/
Farmer Shawn had the dwarf tomatoes in his offer spreadsheet named with a prefix "DW," and this one didn't have that.

Here's a thread discussing Sarandipity vs. Serendipity: http://www.tomatoville.com/showthread.php?t=48054
