Steve's Notes
=====
NGC 2223
17.5" (1/20/90): fairly faint, small, slightly elongated N-S, even surface brightness. A mag 14 star is on the north end 24" from center. Apparently I missed the outer 3' low surface brightness outer halo as the superimposed star is just outside the core.
8" (1/1/84): very faint, fairly small, elongated ~N-S.
