46cm f/4.5 Deep Violet
Small, faint, resolved, a 5' cluster centered on one brighter star, fairly difficult to locate in a very thick Milky Way star field, once located is fairly obvious and distinct

IC 1310. Close to Espin's position is a small cluster or pretty rich asterism about 1.5 x 1 arcmin in size. This is probably Espin's object as it is the only outstanding object in the area. There is some extremely low surface brightness nebulosity around, but it is too faint to have been visible to Espin.
See IC 1299 for more.
