The broadband colors listed for one of the clusters, NGC 6946-1447, in Table 2 were not corrected for foreground reddening (although the V0 magnitude was). The table has been updated with the correct colors. The measurements of structural parameters and dynamical mass are unaffected, but the resulting change in the extinction estimate (internal extinction now appears to be negligible) affects Figure 6 and some of the quantities listed in Table 9 (M/LV, MV and μ0 for this cluster). The increase in M/LV then suggests that the mass function of this cluster may be somewhat bottom-heavy. Data for the four other clusters analyzed in the paper are correct as listed and unaffected by this error. The basic conclusion, i.e., that all the clusters should be capable of long-term survival, remains unchanged.
