Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 133
17.5" (10/13/90): about 15 stars including 5 brighter stars forming a "Y" asterism and 10 faint stars. One of the brightest stars is a very close double star (9.7/11.3 at 6") and a curving lane of very faint stars passes through this double star, not rich. This is the poorest of three clusters just north of Kappa Cassiopeia.
8" (8/16/82): group of 8 stars in "Y" asterism, in field with open cluster NGC 146 and King 14.
