Kolb's Gem Watermelon, which is also known under the names of Cobb's Gem, State
Fair and American Champion Watermelon, is a 19th century exhibition quality
watermelon that produces huge watermelons weighing beyond 100 pounds in
weight. This wonderful giant watermelon was originally developed by Reuben F. Kolb
of Alabama in the 1880's. Kolb's Gem was first introduced to the public at large by D.M.
Ferry and Co. in 1885 and was also recorded by the Nebraska Seed Company of Omaha,
Nebraska in their annual catalogue in 1898.
Its first documented appearance under the name of "Cobb's Gem" ocurred after the turn of
the century when it was exhibited at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis,
Missourri in 1904. Following this, the variety came to be the watermelon of choice for
exhibition growers and also picked up the names "State Fair Watermelon" and "American
Champion Watermelon".
