The M 31 cluster system is the largest sample of globular clusters found in the Local Group, is sufficiently close to allow quite easy observations, and is negligibly affected by total reddening, at least for a large outer sub-set. Unfortunately, a complete and uncontaminated sample of M 31 clusters is not available yet for two basic reasons:
