Abstract
The recent calculations of van Gelder concerning an upper critical field for a wedge-shaped specimen are discussed in the light of the surface-nucleation field of a slab of finite thickness. It is shown that is not a new critical field and that it is related to the size-dependent surface-nucleation field.
