OSU blue was an ongoing breeding program to consolidate a set of different blue jeans, er, genes into a single line of tomatoes. It wasn't meant for general distribution, nor was it considered stable or marketable. Last I heard this breeding was still ongoing.

Tom Wagner is famous as the originator of many venerable varieties of tomatoes and potatoes. He has reopened his Tater Mater storefront on the web and offered some of his still segregating seed lines, among other things, including this recent cross that he called Dancing with Smurfs.
