IC 3733 may be the star that I've indicated in the position table, though there are two other similarly bright stars nearby, as well as a very faint galaxy (or another star?) that would have blended in with the nearest star on Schwassmann's plate.
His description ("eF, S, li * 14") is not very helpful, referring as it does to just a single object. The star I've taken is the closest to his position, and does well enough.― IC Notes by Harold Corwin
