This is an old variety that was listed in receipts when transporting turkeys to markets in "turkey trots" during the late 1700s and early 1800s in Philadelphia. A variant of the Bronze coloring, this variety shows a similarity in pattern but the black is replaced by reddish brown and bronze by light tan. Weights are the same for Historical Bronze, 35 pound toms; 19 pound hens.
