Hi Denis,
The AAVSO Photometric All-Sky Survey (APASS; see http://www.aavso.org/apass) 
observed this field on April 28, 2012.  We would have BVg'r'i' images of the 
region, with limiting magnitude of about 17.  I am heading to a meeting and 
won't be able to look at these images for a week or so.  If there is still a 
need, I'll be happy to check them when I return.
