Description:
The results of photoelectric photometry of 564 stars in the Vilnius
seven-color system in three areas near the North America and Pelican
nebulae are given. Photometric spectral types, absolute magnitudes,
colour excesses, interstellar extinctions and distances of the stars
are determined. We find that the dark cloud separating both nebulae is
at 580pc distance. A number of stars immersed into the dark cloud have
been found. It seems that the dark cloud extends to south down to
40deg declination. The area southwest of α Cyg in the
declination zones 42 and 43deg is comparatively transparent at least
up to 1kpc.

122. Classification impossible, binary?
123. Photometric classification gives sdF5. The star cannot be of B-type since
in that case it shows too large reddening for its distance.
