NGC/IC Project Restoration Effort

===== NGC 7575 is probably CGCG 406-044, just one degree south of Marth's otherwise not-too-badly-determined position. The description matches, and the considerably fainter galaxy just to the south would probably have escaped Marth's attention. The identification as a star (by Reinmuth, copied by Carlson and RNGC) seems less likely given that a "Faint, small, very little extended" nebula would be well-seen in a 48-inch telescope. Still, Marth has probably picked up a few other stars, so this remains a possibility, however -- ahem -- faint. Another, even less likely possibility, is that N7575 is NGC 7562 with a 1.3 minute error in RA. The one-degree digit error strikes me as a better bet.

===== NGC 7575 18" (10/25/03): faint, small, slightly elongated, ~20"x15". Difficult to pin down orientation, though appears roughly E-W. Forms a 1' pair with fainter MCG +01-59-028.
