McGee 
55 days,
indeterminate — 'McGee' is a very early maturing variety. Its fruits weigh between one to three ounces and are red, smooth-skinned, and globe-shaped. They are pleasantly mild, slightly tart with a good lingering aftertaste. It is a heavy producer and although suitable for snacking and salads, primarily used for juicing and canning.
The 'McGee' tomato, originally introduced in 1909,
[1] is named after its originator and early promoter, Professor M. C. McGee (1858-1926) of San Marcos, Texas. His obituary stated, "
Another of his achievements was the propagation of a tomato, the famous McGee tomato which for many years was extensively grown throughout Texas and the southern states."
[3]After his death, his family continued to run small classified advertisements in newspapers throughout the South. Southern seedsmen, for example Chris Reuter's Seed Company of New Orleans, began offering it to their customers by the late 1920s.
