A definitive light curve of the supernova of 1885 (S And) in M31, based on a new reduction of 40 comparison stars to the V system, and some recently recovered observations, is presented. The prediscovery observations are reexamined, the color and spectral observations are reviewed. The evidence for and against classification as a Type I supernova is discussed. Absolute and differential coordinates are given for the M31 nucleus, the supernova, and a nearby field star. The results are based on a detailed analysis of over 500 magnitude estimates, 200 color estimates, 40 spectral observations, 67 transits, and 136 micrometric measurements by some 120 observers.
