IC 3610 appears as a very faint, irregular, nearly linear image on the print of Wolf's original plate. It turns out to be a line of two (not three as I had it earlier) faint galaxies plus a star (that I had mistaken as a galaxy on the DSS; the SDSS clarifies all ...). Wolf's position is just to the east of the galaxies, but is good enough to unambiguously identify the objects.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
