N. Morrell, M. Hamuy, and G. Folatelli, Las Campanas Observatory and Carnegie Supernova Project, report that a CCD spectrogram (range 360-900 nm), obtained on Oct. 24.09 UT with the Magellan II (Clay) telescope (+ LDSS-2 spectrograph), reveals that SN 2004fb (IAUC 8420) is a type-II supernova showing a blue continuum with strong absorption lines and a prominent P-Cyg profile in H_alpha. The velocity obtained for the absorption minimum of H_beta is 6620 km/s, assuming the NED host-galaxy recession velocity of 6100 km/s.
