Photometric (uvby beta) and spectrographic observations of the dwarf Cepheid BP Peg are discussed. The observations are used to derive a reddening value of E(b-y) = 0.067 m. An effective temperature of 7470 K, a mean surface gravity, log g = 3.85, and a Fe/H abundance ratio of - 0.08 are obtained. Pulsation theory and stellar model sequences yield M(bol) = 1.4 m, mass = 1.85 solar masses, and age = 1.3 X 10 to the 9th yrs. Also, the radial-velocity data show a mean radial velocity of - 30 km/s and a total velocity range of 36 km/s.
