Suspected discovery

posted on: 9 June
9 June, while compiling an observing guide for the reflection nebula Struve-Straka 64 in Cepheus, I came across a small (reflection) nebula that, to the best of my knowledge, is uncataloged.
Please note that on the 10' POSS2 Blue image below there's a plate fault directly north of the star + nebula.
