Feejee: pink
Feejee Improved: some interpretation of "maroon",
and likely a selection of Feejee
It is possible that Baker Creek's and Seeds by Design's
Black Brandywine are different cultivars. Is the latter
even stable? (I remember seeing both "superb" and "yuk"
descriptions of it.)
A comparative growout will probably be able to tell if
they are different, but it looks like the history will always
be just the word of one man that does not have
universal credibility. (Heck, there may be other "Black
Brandywines" floating around that were chance crosses
with pink Brandywine and some random dark fruited
cultivar in some seed saver's garden or field, where
the grower just wrote down "Black Brandywine" when
he/she saved seeds or gave some to friends.)
