This paper is a partial and preliminary report on a review of the optical and radio properties of 3CR sources (Kristian, 1977). It will treat the overall status of the identifications and a few of the optical properties of the identified sources, including evidence for a faint magnitude cutoff in the apparent brightness of 3CR quasars. A summary of the status of 3 CR identifications as of early 1976 has been prepared by Smith, Spinrad, and Smith (1976). The present work includes new data on several dozen sources, as well as a systematic reevaluation of previous identifications.
