Abstract Magnitudes and colors of 30 star cluster candidates in three galaxies of the complex M81 – IC 342 are given, obtained from the plates obtained at the 6 m telescope. The color-magnitude diagrams of the cluster candidates are similar to those of the clusters in M33 and LMC. The apparent and absolute magnitudes of the bright cluster candidates in the galaxies studied are about 19.2 and −8.5 mag, respectively. One object in IC 2574 is very bright – its apparent and absolute magnitudes are estimated to be 17.4 and −10.6 mag, respectively.
