The plane of Saturn’s rings seen with a Cooke telscope

Mr R Congrieve-Pridgeon using the 6 inch Cooke refractor at the Hampstead Observatory got observations on February 22^nd 1937 one or two days after the passage of Saturn’s rings had passed through the plane.  

Mr Congrieve-Pridgeon glimpsed it as a fine silver line shortly after sunset and at 18h and 5 min made the note ‘Ring E and W seemed certain; very fine golden line.
