The intensity, color, and polarization of the average zodiacal light as observed by the Helios zodiacal light experiment between December 1974 and January 1981 are given in tabulated form. The tables give zodiacal light at 1 AU and 0.03 AU. The estimates of accuracy given here reflect possible systematic errors in the data. It is noted that repeatability from orbit to orbit and the smoothness of the plots against time or elongation are considerably better.
