Corwin's Notes
=====
NGC 7043 is very close to Marth's place northeast of NGC 7042. Reinmuth,
however, lists N7043 as "Not found." I found, though, that he has the note in
parentheses which indicates that the only plate available to him showing the
object was less than optimal in some respect -- underexposed, or the object
was near the edge of the plate, or perhaps covered by a defect, etc. His
description of N7042, considerably brighter and including the note
"difficult," is also in parentheses, so I am not surprised that N7043 did not
show up on the plate.
