Smoky Arcade is listed as an apple cultivar in N.E. Hansen's 1902 bulletin A Study of Northwestern Apples. It appears in the artificial key under Class C, for green, yellow, or white apples, with or without blush, but not striped. The bulletin places it among Early Summer entries and says the flesh is sweet. [S1]
The source does not give a full cultivar description, origin, breeder, parentage, tree habit, use, storage behavior, or hardiness statement. Its recorded diagnostic trait is floral: the key identifies Smoky Arcade by marginal stamens. [S1]
The evidence supports Smoky Arcade as a verified historical listing and identification key entry, not a complete pomological profile. More sources are needed before its fruit appearance, season, geographic adaptation, and prairie hardiness can be described with confidence. [S1]
