Description:
This paper is the fourth of a series (Trevese et al. 1992, Paper I,
Cat. <J/A+AS/94/327>, Flin et al. 1995, Cat. <J/A+AS/110/313>, Paper II,
Trevese et al. 1997, Cat. <J/A+AS/126/459>, Paper III)
presenting F band photometry, from digitized 48-inch Palomar plates,
of the galaxies brighter than m_3+3 10 clusters of galaxies.
For each galaxy, equatorial coordinates, magnitude, size, ellipticity
and orientation are given. We provide finding charts and contour maps
of the galaxy surface density for each cluster.

Note (2): The aperture is 6.7arcsec for most clusters, except Abell
1661, 2093, 2096 and 2124 where the aperture is 5.0arcsec.
