              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
              ----------------------------------------------------
                      Twenty six weeks ended June 29, 1996


1.   The accounting policies used in preparing these statements are the same as
     those used in preparing the Company's consolidated financial statements for
     the year ended December 30, 1995. These condensed consolidated financial
     statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
     statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report to
     stockholders for the year ended December 30, 1995.

     On May 30, 1996 the Company acquired a majority equity interest in The
     ColorWorks, Inc. for approximately $5.4 million, paid principally in Bush
     Class A Common Stock. As of June 29, 1996, the financial statements of The
     ColorWorks, Inc. are consolidated into the Company's financial statements
     and any resulting minority interest was deemed not material.

     The foregoing financial information reflects all adjustments which are, in
     the opinion of management, of normal recurring nature and necessary for a
     fair presentation. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of
     the results which may be expected for a full year.

2.   In a non cash transaction and as additional consideration for a majority
     interest in a new subsidiary, the Company issued 197,753 shares of Class A
     Common Stock from its Treasury Stock. Each share of stock was valued at
     $23.17 per share for a total consideration of $4,581,000. The afore-
     mentioned shares and price per share have been adjusted to reflect the 
     3-for-2 stock split effectuated in the form of a fifty percent dividend
     paid on June 28, 1996 to stockholders of record as of June 14, 1996.

3.   Inventories consist of the following:

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
- - - ------    --------------------------------------------------------------- 
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
          ---------------------

     Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters
discussed in this 10-Q contain forward-looking statements which involve risks
and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, economic, competitive,
governmental and technological factors affecting the Company's operations,
markets, products, services and prices, and other factors discussed in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
- - - ----------------------

     The Company achieved record second quarter sales for the 13 week period
ended June 29, 1996 of $55,199,000 and record first half sales for the 26 week
period ended June 29, 1996 of $120,232,000. This represents an increase of
$10,191,000, or approximately 22.6%, compared to net sales of $45,008,000 for
the 13 week period ended July 1, 1995 and a first half increase of $25,051,000,
or approximately 26.3%, compared to net sales of $95,181,000 for the 26 week
period ended July 1, 1995. The increase in net sales was attributable to strong
sales in the office superstores and consumer electronics distribution channels,
strong new product acceptance by many retailers, an improvement in the overall
retail climate, as compared to the second quarter and first half of the 1995
fiscal year, and a better balanced inventory position at several key accounts as
compared to the second quarter and first half of the 1995 fiscal year.

     Cost of sales increased $5,328,000 for the 13 week period ended June 29,
1996, compared to the 13 week period ended July 1, 1995.  Cost of sales as an
approximate percentage of net sales decreased by 3.3% from 70.2% in the second
quarter of 1995 to 66.9% in the second quarter of 1996.  Cost of sales increased
by $14,770,000 for the 26 week period ended June 29, 1996, compared to the 26
week period ended July 1, 1995.  Cost of sales as an approximate percentage of
net sales decreased by 2.4% from 70.3% in the first half of 1995 to 67.9% in the
first half of 1996.  The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to higher
sales volumes.  However, for the second quarter and first half of 1996, improved
manufacturing performance and increased production volume (which results in
better absorption of manufacturing overhead) were instrumental in lowering cost
of sales as a percentage of net sales.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1,119,000 for the
13 week period ended June 29, 1996, compared to the 13 week period ended July 1,
1995.  For the 26 week period ended June 29, 1996 selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $3,298,000 as compared to the 26 week
period ended July 1, 1995.   The second quarter of 1996 and first half of 1996
increases in selling, general and administrative expenses were primarily a
result of increases in variable selling expenses (such as commissions, marketing
and promotional incentives) and other administrative costs associated with the
Company's increased sales volumes. Selling, general and administrative expenses
as an approximate percentage of net sales decreased by 2.0% from 21.8% in the
second quarter of 1995 to 19.8% in the second quarter of 1996 and decreased by
1.6% from 20.8% in the first half of 1995 to 19.2% in the first half of 1995.

     Interest expense for the 13 week period ended June 29, 1996 decreased to
$495,000 (or

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
approximately 0.9% of net sales) from $541,000 (or approximately 1.2% of net
sales) for the 13 week period ended July 1, 1995.  Interest expense for the 26
week period ended June 29, 1996 decreased to $848,000 (or approximately 0.7% of
net sales) from $1,107,000 (or approximately 1.2% of net sales) for the 26 week
period ended July 1, 1995.  The decrease in interest expense, for both the
second quarter of 1996 and first half of 1996, is due primarily to lower
interest rates (resulting from the refinancing of the Company's debt and lower
LIBOR and prime rates). As a result of a refinancing of the Company's debt on
July 26, 1995, the applicable margin on LIBOR based borrowings was lowered and,
with the exception of the Industrial Development Revenue Bonds and a capitalized
lease, all other then existing long-term debt (with generally higher interest
rates), was paid off.  Partially offsetting the reduction in interest rates in
both the second quarter 1996 and the first half 1996 was an increase in average
debt.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
- - - --------------------------------

     On May 30, 1996 the Company acquired a majority equity interest in The
ColorWorks, Inc. for approximately $5.4 million, paid principally in Bush Class
A Common Stock. The ColorWorks, Inc., a North Carolina based finishing and
decorating firm, holds the master license to the "HydroGraFix" film processing
technology in North and South America, Central Europe and South Africa. As of
June 29, 1996, the financial statements of The ColorWorks, Inc. are consolidated
into the Company's financial statements and any resulting minority interest was
deemed not material.

     Working capital at second quarter end 1996 increased by $9,616,000 as
compared to working capital at year end 1995, primarily because of an increase
in inventories and accounts receivable and a decrease in income taxes.
Partially offsetting these factors was a increase in accounts payable and other
accrued liabilities.  Total assets at second quarter end increased by
$33,190,000 over year end 1995 primarily as a result of an increase in net
property, plant and equipment, current assets and other assets.  In addition,
total liabilities at second quarter end 1996 increased $17,615,000 over year end
1995, due mostly to an increase in long-term debt and current liabilities.

     The Company spent $12,722,000 on capital expenditures during the first half
of 1996 (which included construction costs associated with both the first and
second phases of the Erie facility, as described below), which were financed
primarily with increased debt and net cash flow from operating activities.
Capital expenditures for the 1996 fiscal year are currently forecasted to be in
the $35 to $40 million range, including the cost of completing the new
manufacturing and distribution facility located in Erie, Pennsylvania.  The
first phase of this expansion, approximately 500,000 square feet, is completed
and, in April 1996, replaced the Company's leased distribution and warehouse
facility in Saybrook, Ohio.  Construction of the second phase of the expansion
program, for an additional approximately 500,000 square feet, commenced in the
second quarter of 1996 and is scheduled to be completed late in 1996.
Manufacturing capacity, incorporating newly developed advanced technology, will
be added incrementally to this facility as demand requires, with the first
equipment installation scheduled for 1996.

     The Company has an unsecured $75,000,000 credit facility with Mellon Bank,
N.A. and other lending institutions.  This loan is due July 31, 2000 with a
balloon payment of the then remaining

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
principal and accrued interest.  The Company has classified all of this line of
credit as long-term debt.  At the Company's option, borrowings may be
effectuated, subject to certain conditions, on a base rate or euro-rate option.
Base rate loans bear interest at the prime rate as announced by Mellon Bank,
N.A. from time to time, and euro-rate loans bear interest at the then current
LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin.  The applicable margin which pertains
only to LIBOR rate loans varies from .50% to .95%, depending upon the Company's
ability to satisfy certain quarterly financial tests.  In addition, the credit
agreement permits the Company to request the issuance of up to a maximum of
$15,000,000 in letters of credit, which issuance will be deemed part of the
$75,000,000 maximum amount of borrowing permitted under the unsecured credit
facility.

     The line of credit agreement provides for achieving certain ratios,
including total funded debt (net of cash) to capital and total funded debt (net
of cash) to earnings before interest and tax, prescribes minimum tangible net
worth requirements, limits capital expenditures and new leases and provides for
certain other affirmative and restrictive covenants.  The Company is in
compliance with all of these requirements.  The Company believes that currently
unused balances available under the existing credit agreements, along with net
cash flow generated from operating activities, will be adequate to fund the
Company's operations in 1996.
