Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 2758 is a double galaxy; the nearby star noted by Wolf ("* 13 np 1/2'") is there. Unfortunately, the print is completely out of focus at the position of the galaxy -- all three images are included in the same fuzzy blob. This should really be looked at on the original plate.
This is the southern-most galaxy that Wolf found on his plate. For more about the plate, see IC 2630.
