I believe this is the same John Einset addressed on the cover. He actually had a seedless grape named after him.

Quote:
Interest in pomology, for Professor Einset, had its beginning at Geneva, where, as a boy, he worked picking fruit in
the Experiment Station orchards. He joined the staff of the Station's Department of Pomology in 1942, and, upon
his retirement in 1973, Cornell appointed him professor of pomology and viticulture emeritus.
Professor Einset was one of the outstanding fruit cytogeneticists and fruit breeders of the world.
