List of Deep Sky Objects Printable (Michael Vlasov)
This work is a printable field guide and observing list of deep-sky objects. It provides basic information about 7000 objects (up to magnitude 14) and features additional 700 select DSO, with negative thumbnail images. Michael Vlasov, he made it using SAC database as main source of data, excluding objects with declination lower then -60º (south).
