Description:
    Three new photometric CCD-based datasets are presented for NGC 6791.
    They consist of deep UBV photometry (to V_lim_=24, B_lim_=24,
    U_lim_=23) of the central parts of the cluster and of selected fields
    around it, and of relatively shallower UBVI photometry for the whole
    cluster (23'x23'). The data have been used to discuss the reddening,
    metallicity and age of NGC 6791.
