Seckel is remembered here mainly as a breeding standard for pear quality, not as a fully described tree. In New Hardy Fruits for the Northwest, it is the seed parent in a Seckel x East Siberian pear cross, and the bulletin calls Seckel "the highest in quality of all pears grown in America." [S1]
The same source says the hybrid fruit is about the same size as Seckel, which gives a small but useful size reference for how the bulletin's authors understood the cultivar. Beyond that, this packet does not give Seckel's origin, breeder, release history, season, tree habit, or hardiness. What it does preserve is Seckel's reputation: breeders used it deliberately when they wanted to carry very high pear quality into hardier material. [S1]
