                        FIRST OF MICHIGAN CAPITAL CORPORATION
                     ANNOUNCES COMMENCEMENT OF SELF TENDER OFFER
             FOR UP TO 625,000 SHARES OF ITS COMMON STOCK AT $11 3/8 PER SHARE
                                         AND
                            REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS


          Detroit,  Michigan.  July  26, 1995.  First  of  Michigan Capital
          Corporation (Chicago Stock  Exchange / FMG) announced  today that
          it intends to  commence within the  next few  days a cash  tender
          offer to  purchase up to  625,000 shares of the  Company's common
          stock at $11  3/8 per  share.   The terms and  conditions of  the
          tender offer will  be set forth in  an Offer to Purchase  and the
          related  Letter  of Transmittal  to  be  distributed to  all  the
          Company's stockholders within the next few days.

          The Company's tender offer will not be conditioned on any minimum
          number of  shares being  tendered.  The  Company will  buy shares
          first from those stockholders holding fewer than 100 shares.

          The purpose of  the tender offer is  to use the Company's  excess
          capitalization to provide an opportunity for the Company's common














          stockholders to receive  immediate liquidity for their  shares up
          to  the 625,000 shares offered to be  purchased and to reduce the
          operating  capital   expenses  by   eliminating  Company   common
          stockholdings of fewer than 100 shares and removing the Company's
          common  stock from registration under the Securities Exchange Act
          of 1934 and from listing on the Chicago Stock Exchange.

          The Board has also voted  to discontinue the payment of dividends
          for  the foreseeable  future.    Management  plans  to  use  this
          savings, along with the other savings realized as a result of the
          announced tender offer, to fund future growth of the Company.

          First of Michigan  Capital Corporation also announced  today that
          the Company incurred  a loss for the quarter ended  June 30, 1995
          of $229,376 or $.08 per share compared to  net income of $127,018
          or  $.04  per  share  for   the  quarter  ended  June  24,  1994.
          Consolidated revenues were $15,648,355 versus $14,925,020 for the
          previous quarter.

          Consolidated net income  for the nine months ended  June 30, 1995
          was $98,577  or $.03 per  share on revenues of  $44,341,008.  For
          the  nine  month period  ended  June  24,  1994, net  income  was
          $1,299,083 or $.44 per share on revenues of $46,752,722.

          Steve  Gasper,  Jr.,  President  and  Chief  Executive   Officer,
          reported that the increase in revenues for the three month period
          was due to increases  in commission and interest revenues,  which
          were  partially  offset  by  a   decline  in  revenues  from  the
          underwriting  of new  stocks  and  bonds.   He  said the  revenue
          decline  for the nine month period  was primarily attributable to
          the   decline  in  revenues  from  commissions  and  mutual  fund
          transactions.

          Gasper also  reported that the decline in net income for both the
          three month  and nine  month  periods is  attributable mainly  to
          higher  operating expenses  as a  result  of required  additional
          expenditures in revenue building areas within the firm which have
          put pressure on short-term earnings.  Gasper also said that First
          of  Michigan Capital Corporation remains committed to its mission
          of  being client driven, service focused and Investment Executive
          oriented,  in order to create  significant value for its clients,
          employees and shareholders.
