This paper is partly a review of the history of the making of the Mount Wilson Catalogue of Photographic Magnitudes in Selected Areas 1-139 (hereafter the MWC), begun in 1909 and completed in 1930, and it is partly the presentation of new photometric results concerning it. Photoelectric photometry of 435 stars in the 11 Selected Areas of SA 28, 29, 45, 55, 57, 71, 82, 94, 106, 107, and 118 of the MWC is given. The data are used to derive magnitude corrections to the MWC for these areas. Ten of the areas are in the Galactic meridional plane (Galactic longitudes of 0{deg} and 180{deg}). These are the same areas used by Becker in his Basel program of star counts for the study of Galactic structure.
