Galaxies - The best of Arp

NGC 169 and IC 1559 are nr. 282 in the Arp catalogue of Peculiar Galaxies.
Arp Classification - Double galaxies with infall and attraction.
Both these galaxies are rather faint and only visible with some difficulty with averted vision.
The bright nearby star, mag. 6.2, is very disturbing when observing these galaxies.
