Photographic B and V light curves are determined for six variables, with periods longer than one day, in and near NGC 1751, NGC 1953, and NGC 2121. New photoelectric sequences are used to calibrate the plates. The mean magnitudes and colours of these variables are similar to the magnitudes and colours of Classical Cepheids of the same period. The photometric properties of these variables are unlike Population II Cepheids in the Galaxy but are comparable to field Cepheids of the Large Magellanic Cloud.
