Caption: Figure 4.

Total intensity image of the SNR CTB 1 from CGPS at 1.42 GHz. False colors start at brightness temperatures of 5.5 K and the maximum is at 8.9 K. The angular resolution and field of view are approximately 1′ and 1.°9 × 1.°1, respectively. A green cross marks the location of the geometric center of the SNR (Landecker et al. 1982), while circles indicate the position of PSR J0002+6216 (Clark et al. 2017). A faint tail of emission is visible from the PSR to the SNR, pointing back toward the geometric center. The inset is our higher angular resolution 20 cm VLA image of the dashed region taken from Figure 3.
