Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 3582 has been misidentified by nearly everyone as the brighter galaxy southwest of the real IC 3582. Wolf's position is exact for his object, and it appears as a nearly stellar object on the print of his original plate.
The brighter galaxy to the southwest (UGC 7778) also appears on the print, and it too appears to be stellar. I suspect that this is why Wolf skipped over it.
