The Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies lists for each entry the following information: NGC number, IC number, or A number; A, B, or C designation; B1950.0 positions, position at 100 year precession; galactic and supergalactic positions; revised morphological type and source; type and color class in Yerkes list 1 and 2; Hubble-Sandage type; revised Hubble type according to Holmberg; logarithm of mean major diameter (log D) and ratio of major to minor diameter (log R) and their weights; logarithm of major diameter; sources of the diameters; David Dunlap Observatory type and luminosity class; Harvard photographic apparent magnitude; weight of V, B-V(0), U-B(0); integrated magnitude B(0) and its weight in the B system; mean surface brightness in magnitude per square minute of arc and sources for the B magnitude; mean B surface brightness derived from corrected Harvard magnitude; the integrated color index in the standard B-V system; "intrinsic" color index; sources of B-V and/or U-B; integrated color in the standard U-B system; observed radial velocity in km/sec; radial velocity corrected for solar motion in km/sec; sources of radial velocities; solar motion correction; and direct photographic source. The catalog was created by concatenating four files side by side.
