Abstract
The combination of Arecibo radar echoes and available vis/IR data indicates that 288 Glauke is an S-class object slightly smaller and less elongated t han 243 Ida, with radar surface properties near the average for S asteroids in the main belt, in an extraordinarily slow (similar to 50-d) rotation st ate.
