Main-belt asteroid 12753 Povenmire was observed to have a lightcurve period of 12.85 hours and a brightness variation of 0.50 magnitude during its 2003 opposition. The lightcurve was symmetrical throughout the 3-month observing period, consistent with a simple shape. BVRI photometry measurements yield the following color indices: V-R = 1.34±0.18 (redder than the sun) and R-I = 0.33±0.10 (solar-like), implying a typically red, then flattening spectral curve. The asteroid was 0.3 magnitudes fainter than perdicted, suggesting H = 12.8 as a revised absolute magnitude.
