I have recovered the dwarf nova PU Herculis by examining its approximate location on several plates in the Lowell `Pluto Camera' collection. The object lies near to previous candidates, but is very faint on all available sky survey scans (POSS-I O/E and two overlapping sets of POSS-II J/F/N plates). The star appears at about photo-blue mag. 16 on a Lowell plate taken 1940 June 4.3 UT (JD 2429784.8), appearing similar in brightness to the candidate marked in the Downes & Shara atlas (1st edition). That star is 9" east-southeast of the CV, and has been shown to be an ordinary G dwarf by Liu et al. (1999 ApJS 122,243). Another similarly bright star lies 7" north. An extremely faint, red galaxy visible on the scans of the POSS-II plates lies a few arcsec southwest of the CV. The equinox 2000 positions of the stars are: PU Her 18 09 52.35 +32 00 33.0 +/- 1" 7" north 18 09 52.39 +32 00 40.1 9" ESE 18 09 52.96 +32 00 27.8 (former DS95 candidate) The position of the CV now matches the description given by Hoffmeister (1949 Astron. Abh. Erganzungshefte z.d. Astron. Nach., vol. 12, no. 1, A3), and his chart (MVS 301). The latter is somewhat confusing since there is a similar larger pattern of field stars immediately around the CV that caused the G dwarf just mentioned to be identified as the variable. \Brian
