400/500mm - 17.5" (4/13/96): extremely faint, fairly large, extremely thin edge-on WSW-ENE, perhaps 4.5'x0.3', slightly brighter core. A mag 14.5 star is off the ENE tip 3.5' from center.

17.5" (5/14/88): very faint, fairly large, extremely thin edge-on ~E-W, no nuclear bulge, brighter along major axis.

900/1200mm - 48" (4/1/11): at 375x appeared as a fairly faint, extremely superthin sliver, extending ~5.2'x0.3' (roughly 17:1 axial ratio) WSW-ENE, reaching to within 30" of a mag 14.5 star barely off the ENE end. Fades at the tips and brightens very slightly towards the center, but no core or zones. This galaxy has perhaps the highest major/minor axial ratio of any FGC galaxy!
