NGC 923

18" (11/26/03): faint or fairly faint, small, round, 25" diameter, weak concentration.  Located 2.4' SSW of a mag 9 star.  Second of three on a line with fainter MCG +07-06-023 1.8' NNE and MCG +07-06-21 2.8' SSW in AGC 347.

13" (11/5/83): very faint, very small.  Located just 2.4' SSW of mag 9 SAO 38041, which interferes with viewing.  Member of AGC 347.
