The variety is Bartlett on an unknown rootstock originally labeled semi-dwarf. The tree is parthenocarpy. A few of the short stub branches have been grafted to other varieties.

Great pictures!  It would be helpful to know variety and rootstock.  I didn't see that anyplace.

Joe Boles of Mississsauga Ont (also a NAFEX member) has developed a sparkling example of an espalier of pears. He sent these pics to our Ontario group a few years ago and I am taking liberty to pass them of to a wider audience. The 1st pic is  full view of the producing espalier, the 2nd in dormancy, the 3rd is another while in fruit production. I believe there are several varieties of pears grafted onto the branches.
