Abstract
We present V and I-c CCD photometry for 40 Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) Cep heids at 1 to 3 epochs. This represents a significant increase in the numbe r of LMC Cepheids with I-band data, and, as we show, is a useful addition t o the sample that can be used to calibrate the period-luminosity relations in these important bands.
