Stephane Javelle discovered IC 1013 = J. 1-291, along with IC 1017, on 16 Jun 1892. His published offsets match CGCG 133-060, though Dreyer made a 1 degree error in north polar distance in the IC 1. Javelle caught the errorn and noted it at the end of his third catalogue (Erratum au Premier Catalogue). Dreyer included the correction in the IC 2 Notes. Wolfgang Steinicke misidentified LEDA 214272 as IC 1013 and this error was repeated by Corwin and loaded into NED. MCG, CGCG, PGC and HyperLEDA fail to identify CGCG 133-060 as IC 1013, probably due to the original IC error.

400/500mm - 17.5" (5/11/96): very faint, fairly small, round, very weak concentration, 40" diameter. Located 5.8' WSW of NGC 5629 and 4' SW of IC 1017. Faintest of 5 in a group.
