That's suspiciously near a 50 years' worth of precession.

WX CMi 2.5 arcmin off relative to other stars on chart, or relatively
placed correctly but whole chart off due to mislabelling of co-ords?

Only about 0.1s and 0.1" difference twixt latest GCVS position and TASS
one for 58058-collected.big... ...probably source of Patrick's
identification.


WX CMi apparently formerly NSV 3412, discovered in K band in 1968, NSV
has only rough position.  Can't decipher reference code 1440 as don't
have access to printed edition.
