Galactic open clusters NGC 1907 and NGC 1912 are known as a binary cluster candidate by Subramaniam et al.(1995). With the SNUO 0.6m telescope, UBV CCD photometric observations were performed for 62 stars in NGC 1907 within the area of 8′×8′ 8′×8′ and 203 stars in NGC 1912 within the area of 15′×15′ 15′×15′ area. We obtained C-M and C-C diagrams. Their mean reddenings are E(B-V) = 0.50±0.03 0.50±0.03 for NGC 1907 and 0.27±0.03 0.27±0.03 for NGC 1912. The distance moduli are estimated as 10.9±0.15 10.9±0.15 and 10.4±0.10 10.4±0.10 for NGC 1907 and NGC 1912, respectively. The ages for these clusters are 400±50Myr 400±50Myr for NGC 1907 and 150±30Myr 150±30Myr for NGC 1912. The distance difference of the two clusters is 300pc and the age difference is 150Myr. These results imply that the two clusters are not physically connected.
