IC 3919 is marked on the print of the original plate, and is 3.5 arcmin north
of Wolf's published position. Since other of the nebulae in this list are
also off by the same amount (e.g. IC 3893), I think that the discrepancy
represents a digit error in Wolf's y-axis measurement. There is a larger but
fainter galaxy about 1.5 arcmin east of the IC galaxy. It is not visible on
the print of the original plate.
See IC 3636 for more about the plate.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
