Summary
We present preliminary BVRI photometric data of 22 galactic globular clusters of the Southern hemisphere. The observations were carried out at the ESO Observatory, during two observing runs in August 1988 (VRI) and March 1989 (BVRI). In both periods half of the total number of nights was used to perform near-infrared (JHK) photometry of the same clusters: the goal of this quasi-contemporary photometry was to obtain a homogeneus sample of galactic clusters photometric observations, on a wavelength range as wide as possible.
