NGC 1111

17.5" (1/9/99): extremely faint, very small, elongated 3:1 SSW- NNE, ~25"x9".  Originally this object appeared virtually stellar as I probably just detected the core but after viewing for awhile the thin extensions were noticed.  IC 1850 is located 5.6' NW of IC 1852.  This NGC identification (NGC 1111) is very uncertain.
