Scientific paper

Four LMC star clusters are examined whose colors suggest ages between 2 and 10 Gyr. Three of these, NGC 1754, NGC 1795 and SL 506, have ages within the well-populated range from 0.8 to 3 Gyr. No conclusion can be reached about the age of NGC 2005, which is located in the Bar and very crowded. No cluster has yet been found in the LMC with a main-sequence turnoff age between 4 and 10 Gyr.
