Friend shipped me Black #1 last year.  I put it in the ground out by my barn and it has prospered there.  It is loaded with figs.  I was all upset when they started ripening.  It is a YELLOW fig, greenish yellow.

Then I looked it up here on Jon's site and he says "Not sure why it is called "Black" based on fruit seen at USDA/UC Davis..."

For those of you with this fig; does it produce a yellow fig?

They are not black. They were darker this year, at Davis, but nothing near black.

In my area under my growing conditions it produces a dark brown or purple brown fig similar in color to Osborne P or Archipel.  It is the breba crop that really makes it worth growing. The main crop is very late here and usually starts late Sept.. My plant is from a UCD provided cutting..
