NGC 4151 passes rather frequently through states of deep minima characterized by a weak UV continuum and a nearly complete fading of the broad components of CIV and other permitted lines. The phenomenon described in this short article is best observed during these minima [7]. Other properties of the UV and X-ray continuum and of the emission and absorption lines of NGC 4151 have been presented and discussed elsewhere [1–6].
