Has anybody chased down this faint PN in Taurus? The only observation I can find was made by Mike Kerr with a 24" (63cm) telescope from Australia and he found it faint.

Owen, perhaps you know my sketching compilation (http://www.deepsky-visuell.de/PN.htm) of PNe? There you can find one or another (obscure) PN, also "the Austrian Original" Pu 1 (PNG 181.5+00.9).

My notes are as follows:
not visible without filter, with UHC barely visible, with [OIII] steadily visible with averted vision; round, diffuse, faint plob
