Abstract

Descriptions and photographs are presented for three faint star clusters. The first is extremely distant and may constitute the first identification of a truly intergalactic globular cluster. The second, a low-galactic-latitude object, may also be a globular cluster or a low-mass dwarf member galaxy of the Local Group. Finally, the third object is a far outlying member of the Small Magellanic Cloud, probably an open cluster.
