  We report that the Sloan Digital Sky Survey quasar SDSS J165043.44+425149.3
is gravitationally lensed into two images, based on observations obtained with
the WIYN 3.5 m telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory. The lensed
quasar, at a redshift of z=1.54, appears as two images separated by 1.2" with
B-band magnitudes of 17.8 and 20.0. The lensing galaxy is clearly detected in
I-band images obtained in 0.3" seeing, after point spread function subtraction
of the two quasar images. A strong metal-line absorption system is also
identified in the unresolved SDSS spectrum of the double quasar, suggesting a
plausible lens redshift of z=0.58. The UBRI flux ratios of the pair vary
significantly from 8.5:1 in the blue to 5.4:1 in the red, a difference of 0.5
magnitudes, and may indicate the presence of microlensing in one or both quasar
components. The predicted differential time delay between quasar images is on
the order of one month, assuming the intervening absorption system is due to
the lensing galaxy.
