D. Rabinowitz and C. Baltay (Yale) report:

The La Silla - QUEST supernova survey (conducted with the 160-Megapixel QUEST camera on the ESO 1.0m Schmidt at La Silla, Chile from 2010 to 2016) covered the location of SSS17a (Coulter et al. LVC GCN 21529) with 345 exposures to depth ~R=19 in the years 2013 to 2016 (~100 exposures per year). Visual inspection of these images at the location of SSS17a shows no point source to limit ~R=18.
