Photo and description from seed supplier:
"This organic, high quality Italian heirloom has incredible flavour. San Marzano Lampadina"s elongated (4-6oz) red tomatoes have firm pulp and thick skin, perfect for canning or making sauces and paste. The vines of this traditional San Marzano type are vigorous and indeterminate. Once you taste this fantastic tomato, you'll wish you had twice as many plants. The fruits also keep for ages due to their low water content. Indeterminate (vine)."
