Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have requested our opinion with respect to the public offering and
sale by you, Cunningham Graphics International, Inc., a New Jersey corporation
(the "Company"), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (No.
333-46541)(the "Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act"), of a maximum of 115,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Common
Stock").
We have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified
to our satisfaction, of such documents and corporate and public records as we
deem necessary as a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed. With respect to
such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures appearing on
all documents presented to us as originals, and the conformity to the originals
of all documents presented to us as conformed or reproduced copies. Where
factual matters relevant to such opinion were not independently established, we
have relied upon certificates of appropriate state and local officials, and upon
certificates of executive officers and responsible employees and agents of the
Company.
Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Common Stock has
been duly and validly authorized and when sold, paid for and issued as
contemplated by the Registration Statement will be duly and validly issued and
fully paid and nonassessable.
