Observations of OB-stars, made in 1959 and 1960 at the Leiden Southern Station near Hartebeespoortdam, South Africa, with the VBLUW photometer attached to th e 90 cm light-collector, are given in this paper. They are compared with photome try obtained by Graham (1968BANS....2..397G), Walraven & Walraven (1977BAN....15...67W), Lub & Pel (1977A&A....54..137L) and van Genderen et al. (1984A&AS...58..537V). Formulae for the transformation of the present observations to those of Walraven & Walraven (1977BAN....15...67W) and Lub & Pel (1977A&A....54..137L) are given. For a description of the VBLUW photometric system, see e.g.
