We obtained R-band photometry of 433 Eros at the Table Mountain 0.6-m telescope during its 1998 apparition. Our five nights of photometry yields a rotational period P sid = 5.27048 ยฑ 0.00064 h and visual geometric albedo for 433 Eros of 0.27 +0.03 -0.06 , high, but within the range of S-type asteroi
