RISK/RETURN SUMMARY
1. WHAT IS THE PORTFOLIO'S OBJECTIVE?
The Portfolio seeks total return through capital
appreciation and, to a lesser extent, dividend income by
investing in a fixed portfolio of blue chip common stocks.
You can participate in the Portfolio by purchasing units.
Each unit represents an equal share of the stocks in the
Portfolio and receives an equal share of income
distributions.
2. WHAT IS THE PORTFOLIO'S INVESTMENT STRATEGY?
The Portfolio contains 33 blue chip stocks. These stocks:
o are relatively high-priced;
o are issued primarily by leading American corporations; and
o have established records of earnings and uninterrupted
dividend payments over a relatively long period of time.
One issuer, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., does not pay dividends
but in the opinion of Defined Asset Funds research analysts
otherwise qualifies as a blue chip stock.
The Portfolio plans to hold the stocks in the Portfolio for
about one year. At the end of approximately one year, we
will liquidate the Portfolio and select a new portfolio, if
available.
3. WHAT INDUSTRIES ARE REPRESENTED IN THE PORTFOLIO?
Based upon the principal business of each issuer and
current market values, the Portfolio represents the
following industry sectors:
APPROXIMATE
PORTFOLIO
PERCENTAGE
o Medical/Health Care 23%
o Insurance 13
o Consumer Products 11
o Electronic Products/Services 12
o Diversified Operations 7
o Financial Services 7
o Aerospace/Defense-Equipment 7
o Food/Beverages 4
o Retail 5
o Office Automation & Equipment 3
o Data Processing/Management 3
o Building & Construction Products 2
o Oil 1
o Telecommunications 2
4. WHAT ARE THE SIGNIFICANT RISKS?
YOU CAN LOSE MONEY BY INVESTING IN THE PORTFOLIO. THIS CAN
HAPPEN FOR VARIOUS REASONS, INCLUDING:
o Stock prices can be volatile.
o Share prices may decline during the life of the Portfolio.
o The Portfolio may continue to purchase or hold the stocks
originally selected even though their market value or yield
may have changed.
3
<PAGE>
5. IS THIS PORTFOLIO APPROPRIATE FOR YOU?
Yes, if you want total return through capital appreciation
and dividend income. You will benefit from a professionally
selected and supervised portfolio whose risk is reduced by
investing in equity securities of different issuers.
The Portfolio is not appropriate for you if you are
unwilling to take the risk involved with an equity
investment. It may not be appropriate for you if you are
seeking preservation of capital or high current income.
6. WHAT ARE THE PORTFOLIO'S FEES AND EXPENSES?
This table shows the costs and expenses you may pay,
directly or indirectly, when you invest in the Portfolio.
ESTIMATED ANNUAL OPERATING EXPENSES
AMOUNT
PER 1,000
UNIT
-----------
$ 0.86
Trustee's Fee
$ 0.70
Portfolio Supervision,
Bookkeeping and
Administrative Fees
(including updating
expenses)
$ 0.33
Other Operating Expenses
-----------
$ 1.89
TOTAL
The Sponsors historically paid updating expenses.
You will pay an up-front sales fee of approximately 1.00%,
as well as a monthly deferred sales fee of $2.50 per 1,000
units deducted from the Portfolio's net asset value
October 1999 through April 1, 2000.
The maximum sales fees are as follows:
YOUR MAXIMUM
SALES FEE
IF YOU INVEST: WILL BE:
----------------------------------- -----------------
Less than $50,000 2.75%
$ 50,000 to $99,999 2.50%
$100,000 to $249,999 2.00%
$250,000 to $999,999 1.75%
$1,000,000 or more 1.00%
7. IS THE PORTFOLIO MANAGED?
Unlike a mutual fund, the Portfolio is not managed and
stocks are not sold because of market changes. The Sponsors
monitor the portfolio and may instruct the Trustee to sell
securities under certain limited circumstances.
8. HOW DO I BUY UNITS?
You can buy units from any of the Sponsors and other
broker-dealers. The Sponsors are listed later in this
prospectus. Some banks may offer units for sale through
special arrangements with the Sponsors, although certain
legal restrictions may apply. Employees of certain Sponsors
and Sponsor affiliates and non-employee directors of
certain of the Sponsors may purchase Units at a reduced
sales charge.
The minimum investment is $250.
UNIT PRICE PER 1,000 UNITS $1,120.06
(as of August 31, 1999)
Unit price is based on the net asset value of the Portfolio
plus the up-front sales fee.
The Portfolio stocks are valued by the Trustee on the basis
of their closing prices at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time every
business day. Unit price changes every day with changes in
the prices of the stocks.
9. HOW DO I SELL UNITS?
You may sell your units at any time to any Sponsor or the
Trustee for the net asset value determined at the close of
business on the date of sale less any deferred sales fee.
4
<PAGE>
10. HOW ARE DISTRIBUTIONS MADE AND TAXED?
The Fund pays distributions of any dividend income, net of
expenses, on the 25th of November, February, May and July
if you own units on the 10th of those months. Distributions
of ordinary income will be dividends for federal income tax
purposes and may be eligible for the dividends-received
deduction for corporations. Distributions to foreign
investors will generally be subject to withholding taxes.
11. WHAT OTHER SERVICES ARE AVAILABLE?
REINVESTMENT
You may choose to reinvest your income distributions into
additional units of the Portfolio. You will pay only the
deferred sales fee remaining at the time of reinvestment.
Unless you choose reinvestment, you will receive your
distributions in cash.
EXCHANGE PRIVILEGES
You may exchange units of this Portfolio for units of
certain other Defined Asset Funds. You may also exchange
into this Portfolio from certain other funds. We charge a
reduced sales fee on designated exchanges.
5
<PAGE>
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM YOUR INVESTMENT
INCOME
The Portfolio will pay to you any income it has received quarterly. Because the
Portfolio generally pays dividends as they are received, individual income
payments will fluctuate based upon the amount of dividends declared and paid by
each issuer. Other reasons your income may vary are:
o changes in the Portfolio because of additional securities purchases or
sales;
o a change in the Portfolio's expenses; and
o the amount of dividends declared and paid.
There can be no assurance that any dividends will be declared or paid.
RECORDS AND REPORTS
You will receive:
o a notice from the Trustee if new equity securities are deposited in exchange
or substitution for equity securities originally deposited;
o an annual report on Portfolio activity; and
o annual tax information. This will also be sent to the IRS. You must report the
amount of income received during the year. Please contact your tax advisor in
this regard.
You may request audited financial statements of the Portfolio from the Trustee.
You may inspect records of Portfolio transactions at the Trustee's office during
regular business hours.
THE RISKS YOU FACE
LITIGATION AND LEGISLATION RISKS
We do not know of any pending litigation that might have a material adverse
effect upon the Portfolio.
Future tax legislation could affect the value of the Portfolio by:
o reducing the dividends-received deduction or
o increasing the corporate tax rate resulting in less money available for
dividend payments.
SELLING OR EXCHANGING UNITS
You can sell your units at any time for a price based on their net asset value.
Your net asset value is calculated each business day by:
o adding the value of the Portfolio Securities, cash and any other Portfolio
assets;
o subtracting accrued but unpaid Portfolio expenses, unreimbursed Trustee
advances, cash held to buy back units or for distribution to investors,
and any other Portfolio liabilities; and
o dividing the result by the number of outstanding units.
Your net asset value when you sell may be more or less than your cost because of
sales fees, market movements and changes in the Portfolio.
If you sell your units before the final deferred sales fee installment, the
amount of any remaining payments will be deducted from your proceeds.
6
<PAGE>
SPONSORS' SECONDARY MARKET
While we are not obligated to do so, we will buy back units at net asset value.
We may resell the units to other buyers or to the Trustee.
We have maintained a secondary market continuously for more than 28 years, but
we could discontinue it without prior notice for any business reason.
SELLING UNITS TO THE TRUSTEE
Regardless of whether we maintain a secondary market, you can sell your units to
the Trustee at any time by contacting your broker, dealer or financial
institution that holds your units in street name. Sometimes, additional
documents are needed such as a trust document, certificate of corporate
authority, certificate of death or appointment as executor, administrator or
guardian.
Within seven days after your request and the necessary documents are received,
the Trustee will mail a check to you. Contact the Trustee for additional
information.
As long as we are maintaining a secondary market, the Trustee will sell your
units to us at a price based on net asset value. If there is no secondary
market, the Trustee will sell your units in the over-the-counter market if it
believes it can obtain a higher price. In that case, you will receive the net
proceeds of the sale.
If the Portfolio does not have cash available to pay you for the units you are
selling, the agent for the Sponsors will select securities to be sold. These
sales could be made at times when the securities would not otherwise be sold and
may result in your receiving less than you paid for your unit and also reduce
the size and diversity of the Portfolio.
If you sell units with a value of at least $250,000, you may choose to receive
your distribution 'in kind.' If you so choose, you will receive securities and
cash with a total value equal to the price of your units. The Trustee will try
to distribute securities in the portfolio pro rata, but it reserves the right to
distribute only one or a few securities. The Trustee will act as your agent in
an in-kind distribution and will either hold the securities for your account or
transfer them as you instruct. You must pay any transaction costs as well as
transfer and ongoing custodial fees on sales of securities distributed in kind.
There could be a delay in paying you for your units:
o if the New York Stock Exchange is closed (other than customary weekend and
holiday closings);
o if the SEC determines that trading on the New York Stock Exchange is
restricted or that an emergency exists making sale or evaluation of the
securities not reasonably practicable; and
o for any other period permitted by SEC order.
ROLLOVER/EXCHANGE OPTION
When this Portfolio is about to terminate, you may have the option to roll your
proceeds into the next Blue Chip Stock Portfolio if one is available.
If you hold your units with one of the Sponsors and notify your financial
adviser by September 13, 2000, your units will be redeemed and the proceeds from
the sale of the securities will be reinvested in units of the new Blue Chip
Stock
7
<PAGE>
Portfolio. If you decide not to roll over your proceeds, you will receive a cash
distribution (or, if you so choose, an in-kind distribution) after the Portfolio
terminates.
The Portfolio will terminate by October 11, 2000. You may, by written notice to
the Trustee at least ten business days prior to termination, elect to receive an
in-kind distribution of your pro rata share of the Securities remaining in the
Portfolio at that time (net of your share of expenses). Of course you can sell
your Units at any time prior to termination.
You may exchange units of this Portfolio for units of another Select or Focus
Series or certain other Defined Asset Funds any time before this Portfolio
terminates. If you continue to hold your Units, you may exchange units of this
Portfolio for units of certain other Defined Asset Funds at a reduced sales fee
if your investment goals change. To exchange units, you should talk to your
financial professional about what Portfolios are exchangeable, suitable and
currently available.
We may amend or terminate the options to exchange your units or roll your
proceeds at any time without notice.
HOW THE FUND WORKS
PRICING
Units are charged a combination of initial and deferred sales fees.
The deferred sales fee is generally a monthly charge of $2.50 per 1,000 units
and is accrued in seven monthly installments through April 1, 2000. Units
redeemed or repurchased prior to the accrual of the final deferred sales fee
installment will have the amount of any remaining installments deducted from the
redemption or repurchase proceeds or deducted in calculating an in-kind
distribution, however, this deduction will be waived in the event of the death
or disability (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986) of an investor.
If you redeem or sell your units you will pay the remaining balance of the
deferred sales fee for the year. The initial sales fee is equal to the aggregate
sales fee less the aggregate amount of any remaining installments of the
deferred sales fee.
It is anticipated that securities will not be sold to pay the deferred sales fee
until after the date of the last installment. Investors will be at risk for
market price fluctuations in the securities from the several installment accrual
dates to the dates of actual sale of securities to satisfy this liability.
EVALUATIONS
The Trustee values the securities on each business day (i.e., any day other than
Saturdays, Sundays and the following holidays as observed by the New York Stock
Exchange: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Good
Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas).
If the securities are listed on a national securities exchange or the Nasdaq
National Market, evaluations are generally based on closing sales prices on that
exchange or that system or, if closing sales prices are not available, at the
mean between the closing bid and offer prices.
INCOME
o The annual income per unit, after deducting estimated annual Portfolio
expenses per
8
<PAGE>
unit, will depend primarily upon the amount of dividends declared and paid by
the issuers of the securities and changes in the expenses of the Portfolio
and, to a lesser degree, upon the level of purchases of additional securities
and sales of securities. There is no assurance that dividends on the
securities will continue at their current levels or be declared at all.
o Each unit receives an equal share of distributions of dividend income net of
estimated expenses. Each investor's quarterly income distribution will equal
approximately one-quarter of the investor's pro rata share of the estimated
annual income to the Income Account, after deducting estimated expenses.
Because dividends on the securities are not received at a constant rate
throughout the year, any distribution may be more or less than the amount then
credited to the income account. The Trustee credits dividends received to an
Income Account and other receipts to a Capital Account. The Trustee may
establish a reserve account by withdrawing from these accounts amounts it
considers appropriate to pay any material liability. These accounts do not
bear interest.
EXPENSES
The Trustee is paid a fee monthly. It also benefits when it holds cash for the
Portfolio in non-interest bearing accounts. The Trustee may also receive
additional amounts:
o for extraordinary services and costs of indemnifying the Trustee and the
Sponsors;
o costs of actions taken to protect the Portfolio and other legal fees and
expenses;
o expenses for keeping the Portfolio's registration statement current; and
o Portfolio termination expenses and any governmental charges.
The Sponsors are currently reimbursed up to 70 cents per 1,000 units annually
for providing portfolio supervisory, bookkeeping and administrative services and
for any other expenses properly chargeable to the Portfolio. Legal, typesetting,
electronic filing and regulatory filing fees and expenses associated with
updating the Portfolio's registration statement are also now chargeable to the
Portfolio. While this fee may exceed the amount of these costs and expenses
attributable to this Portfolio, the total of these fees for all Series of
Defined Asset Funds will not exceed the aggregate amount attributable to all of
these Series for any calendar year. Certain of these expenses were previously
paid for by the Sponsors.
The Trustee's and Sponsors'fees may be adjusted for inflation without investors'
approval.
The deferred sales fees you owe are paid from the Capital Account. Although we
may collect the deferred sales charge monthly, to keep Units more fully invested
we do not currently plan to pay the deferred sales charge until after the
rollover notification date.
The Sponsors will pay advertising and selling expenses at no charge to the
Portfolio. If Portfolio expenses exceed initial estimates, the Portfolio will
owe the excess. The Trustee has a lien on Portfolio assets to secure
reimbursement of Portfolio expenses and may sell securities if cash is not
available.
PORTFOLIO CHANGES
If we maintain a secondary market in units but are unable to sell the units that
we buy in the
9
<PAGE>
secondary market, we will redeem units, which will affect the size and
composition of the portfolio.
We decide whether to offer units for sale that we acquire in the secondary
market after reviewing:
o diversity of the Portfolio;
o size of the Portfolio relative to its original size;
o ratio of Portfolio expenses to income; and
o cost of maintaining a current prospectus.
PORTFOLIO TERMINATION
When the Portfolio is about to terminate you will receive a notice, and you will
be unable to sell your units after that time. Unless you choose to receive an
in-kind distribution of securities, we will sell any remaining securities, and
you will receive your final distribution in cash.
You will pay your share of the expenses associated with termination, including
brokerage costs in selling securities. This may reduce the amount you receive as
your final distribution.
NO CERTIFICATES
All investors are required to hold their Units in uncertificated form and in
'street name' by their broker, dealer or financial institution at the Depository
Trust Company.
TRUST INDENTURE
The Portfolio is a 'unit investment trust' governed by a Trust Indenture, a
contract among the Sponsors and the Trustee, which sets forth their duties and
obligations and your rights. A copy of the Indenture is available to you on
request to the Trustee. The following summarizes certain provisions of the
Indenture.
The Sponsors and the Trustee may amend the Indenture without your consent:
o to cure ambiguities;
o to correct or supplement any defective or inconsistent provision;
o to make any amendment required by any governmental agency; or
o to make other changes determined not to be materially adverse to your best
interest (as determined by the Sponsors).
Investors holding 51% of the units may amend the Indenture. Every investor must
consent to any amendment that changes the 51% requirement. No amendment may
reduce your interest in the Portfolio without your written consent.
The Trustee may resign by notifying the Sponsors. The Sponsors may remove the
Trustee without your consent if:
o it fails to perform its duties;
o it becomes incapable of acting or bankrupt or its affairs are taken over by
public authorities; or
o the Sponsors determine that its replacement is in your best interest.
Investors holding 51% of the units may remove the Trustee. The Trustee may
resign or be removed by the Sponsors without the consent of investors. The
resignation or removal of the Trustee becomes effective when a successor accepts
appointment. The Sponsors will try to appoint a successor promptly; however, if
no successor has accepted within 30 days after notice of resignation, the
resigning Trustee may petition a court to appoint a successor.
Any Sponsor may resign as long as one Sponsor with a net worth of $2 million
10
<PAGE>
remains and agrees to the resignation. The remaining Sponsors and the Trustee
may appoint a replacement. If there is only one Sponsor and it fails to perform
its duties or becomes bankrupt the Trustee may:
o remove it and appoint a replacement Sponsor;
o liquidate the Portfolio; or
o continue to act as Trustee without a Sponsor.
Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated acts as agent for the
Sponsors.
The Trust Indenture contains customary provisions limiting the liability of the
Trustee and the Sponsors.
LEGAL OPINION
Davis Polk & Wardwell, 450 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10017, as
special counsel for the Sponsors, has given an opinion that the units are
validly issued.
AUDITORS
Deloitte & Touche LLP, 2 World Financial Center, New York, New York 10281,
independent accountants, audited the Statement of Condition included in this
prospectus.
SPONSORS
The Sponsors are:
MERRILL LYNCH, PIERCE, FENNER & SMITH INCORPORATED (a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.)
P.O. Box 9051,
Princeton, NJ 08543-9051

New York, NY 10019
Each Sponsor is a Delaware corporation and it, or its predecessor, has acted as
sponsor to many unit investment trusts. As a registered broker-dealer each
Sponsor buys and sells securities (including investment company shares) for
others (including investment companies) and participates as an underwriter in
various selling groups.
TRUSTEE
The Bank of New York, 101 Barclay Street, 17W, New York, New York 10268, is the
Trustee. It is supervised by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and New York State banking
authorities.
UNDERWRITERS' AND SPONSORS' PROFITS
Underwriters receive sales charges when they sell units. Any cash made available
by you to the Sponsors before the settlement date for those units may be used in
the Sponsors' businesses to the extent permitted by federal law and may benefit
the Sponsors.
A Sponsor or Underwriter may realize profits or sustain losses on stocks in the
Portfolio which were acquired from underwriting syndicates of which it was a
member.
In maintaining a secondary market, the Sponsors will realize profits or sustain
losses in the amount of any difference between the prices at which they buy
units and the prices at which they resell or redeem them.
PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION
The Sponsors do not intend to qualify units for sale in any foreign countries.
This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell units in any country where
units cannot lawfully be sold.
CODE OF ETHICS
Merrill Lynch, as agent for the Sponsors, has adopted a code of ethics requiring
reporting of personal securities transactions by its employees with access to
information on portfolio transactions. The goal of the code is to prevent fraud,
deception or misconduct against the Portfolio and to provide reasonable
standards of conduct.
YEAR 2000 ISSUES
Many computer systems were designed in such a way that they may be unable to
distinguish between the year 2000 and the year 1900 (commonly known as the 'Year
2000 Problem'). We do not expect that the computer system changes necessary to
prepare for the Year 2000 will cause any major operational difficulties for the
Portfolio. The Year 2000 Problem may adversely affect the issuers of the
securities contained in the Portfolio, but we cannot predict whether any impact
will be material to the Portfolio as a whole.
ADVERTISING AND SALES LITERATURE
Advertising and sales literature may include brief descriptions of the principal
businesses of the companies represented in the Portfolio and the research
analysis of why they were selected.

<PAGE>
TAXES
The following summarizes the material income tax consequences of holding Units.
It assumes that you are not a dealer, financial institution, insurance company
or other investor with special circumstances or subject to special rules. You
should consult your own tax adviser about your particular circumstances.
GENERAL TREATMENT OF THE FUND AND YOUR INVESTMENT
The Portfolio intends to qualify for special tax treatment as a regulated
investment company so that it will not be subject to federal income tax on the
portion of its taxable income that it distributes to investors in a timely
manner.
DISTRIBUTIONS
Distributions to you of the Portfolio's dividend income and of the Portfolio's
gains from Securities it has held for one year or less will generally be taxed
to you as ordinary income. Distributions to you in excess of the Portfolio's
taxable income will be treated as a return of capital and will reduce your basis
in your Units. To the extent such distributions exceed your basis, they will be
treated as gain from the sale of your Units.
Distributions to you that are treated as ordinary income will constitute
dividends for federal income tax purposes. Corporate investors may be eligible
for the 70% dividends-received deduction with respect to these distributions.
You should consult your tax adviser.
Distributions to you of the Portfolio's net capital gain that are designated as
capital gain dividends will generally be taxable to you as long-term capital
gain, regardless of how long you have held your Units.
GAIN OR LOSS UPON DISPOSITION
You will generally recognize capital gain or loss when you dispose of your
Units. If you receive Securities upon redemption of your Units (including
pursuant to the rollover option), you will generally recognize capital gain or
loss equal to the difference between your basis in your Units and the fair
market value of the Securities received in redemption.
If your net long-term capital gains exceed your net short-term capital losses,
the excess may be subject to tax at a lower rate than ordinary income. Any
capital gain or loss will generally be long-term if you have held your
investment which produces the gain or loss for more than one year and short-term
otherwise. Because the deductibility of capital losses is subject to
limitations, you may not be able to deduct all of your capital losses. You
should consult your tax adviser in this regard.
YOUR BASIS IN THE SECURITIES
Your aggregate basis in the Units will generally be equal to the cost of your
Units, including the initial sales charge. You should not increase your basis in
your Units by deferred sales charges or organizational expenses, because the tax
reporting form and annual statements you receive will be based on the net
amounts paid to you, from which these expenses will already be deducted.
STATE AND LOCAL TAXES
Under the income tax laws of the State and City of New York, the Portfolio will
not be taxed as a corporation, and the income of the
13
<PAGE>
Portfolio will be treated as the income of the investors in the same manner as
for federal income tax purposes.
FOREIGN INVESTORS
If you are a foreign investor and you are not engaged in a U.S. trade or
business, you generally will be subject to 30% withholding tax (or a lower
applicable treaty rate) on distributions. You should consult your tax adviser
about the possible application of federal, state and local, and foreign taxes.
RETIREMENT PLANS
You may wish to purchase units for an Individual Retirement Account ('IRAs') or
other retirement plan. Generally, capital gains and income received in each of
these plans are exempt from federal taxation. All distributions from these types
of plans are generally treated as ordinary income but may, in some cases, be
eligible for tax-deferred rollover treatment. You should consult your attorney
or tax adviser about the specific tax rules relating to these plans. These plans
are offered by brokerage firms, including the Sponsors of this Portfolio, and
other financial institutions. Fees and charges with respect to such plans may
vary.
SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
You can receive at no cost supplemental information about the Portfolio by
calling the Trustee. The supplemental information includes more detailed risk
disclosure and general information about the structure and operation of the
Portfolio. The supplemental information is also available from the SEC.

The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a Unit
Investment Trust. The following is a summary of significant accounting
policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its

bid price on the over-the-counter market. Realized gains or losses on
sales of securities are determined using the first-in, first-out cost
method.
(b) The Fund is not subject to income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for
such taxes is required.
(c) Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates.
2. DISTRIBUTIONS
