Description:
    A systematic search by microscope for non-stellar objects on
    19 POSS II R film copies has led to the detection of 3455 objects. The
    vast majority are obscured galaxies, most of which are new. We present
    coordinates and optical diameters of these galaxy candidates, list
    coincidences with objects in optical and infrared catalogues.
