Steve's Notes

=====

NGC 325

24" (12/22/14): at 260x; very faint, small, elongated 2:1 E-W, ~20"x10".  Occasionally a mag 16.5 star appeared to be involved [DSS shows a very faint star just north of the core].  Situated 2.1' NW of NGC 327.

17.5" (11/6/93): only highly suspected several times as an extremely faint and small glow situated 2.1' NW of NGC 327.  This galaxy is a very low surface brightness edge-on in a group with NGC 329 4' NE and NGC 321 2.7' NW.
