bric-a-brac.apple.com, also known as ftp.apple.com, is the original
Apple FTP site for developers.  For Apple II material, it contains
ShrinkIt, probably ShrinkIt GS, probably GSBug, the complete set of
Apple II Technical Notes, System 5.0.4, System 6.0.1, and the 8-bit
Apple II system disk.

... well, it used to.  I just tried connecting to it, and got a
message saying that it had been redirected to ftp-server.apple.com,
which then refused the connection.  (I hope this is just a temporary
situation.)
