AbstractThe color-magnitude diagram for the strong metallic-line globular cluster NGC 6356 has been obtained by using photographic plates and a photoelectric magnitude sequence made with the 200-inch Hale telescope. The photometric limit of the data is V=19.2, B=20.2. The diagram shows a well defined giant sequence, a stubby horizontal branch confined to stars redder than (B-V)0=+0.3, and the beginning of a subgiant branch...
