Abstract:
    The existence and relationship of the possible clusters NGC 1746,
    NGC 1750 and NGC 1758 has been a matter of discussion during the last
    decades. This star field is close to the galactic anticenter and lies
    in the direction of the Taurus dark cloud complex. As part of a
    comprehensive astrometric and photometric analysis of this zone, we
    present a brief historical introduction together with deep UBVRI-CCD
    photometry of the area. The presence of at least one cluster can be
    deduced from these data. This object has a position and apparent size
    compatible with those previously quoted for NGC 1750 and NGC 1758. It
    is not possible to distinguish the single or double nature of the
    cluster on the sole basis of our photometry and the spatial
    distribution of the stars. No photometric evidence was found for
    NGC 1746.

Note (1): The stars numbers 1996, 1997, 2372, 3061 and 3162 were found to have
           anomalous photometric data and, thus, were eliminated from
           the catalogue.  The number of entries is 3224, but the maximum
           identification number is 3229.
Note (2): There is a good alignment of +x coordinate with +alpha and
           of +y with +delta
