Complete Catalogue

edit

The complete catalogue is not that published by Lynds in 1962, as the article seemed to imply (I’ve made the correction), but the book A Photographic Atlas of Selected Regions of the Milky Way, by Edwin B. Frost and Mary R. Calvert, Washington, Carnegie Institution of Washington, 1927. Calvert was Barnard’s niece. The book is quite rare, and is now worth a few thousand dollars, having been printed at only 750 copies—one of which is located at the Gerstein Science Information Centre of the University of Toronto.
