Jim :

My 2 favorite internet sites with pictures of apples:
Brogdale Horticultural Trust : http://www.brogdale.org/nfc_home.php
Orange Pippin : http://www.orangepippin.com/default.aspx

Although these sites are English, they have many North American varieties
described and pictured.

You may also search the National Plant Germplast System (GRIN) database :
http://www.ars-grin.gov/npgs/searchgrin.html
but it is more useful to find information about a variety that you already
know the name of.
