        NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

                             JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995


1.  ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Broadway Video Entertainment, L.P., (the "Partnership") was organized on August
1, 1994 as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of New York to
engage in acquiring, licensing and exploiting certain motion picture rights and
properties. In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, (the "Agreement"),
the initial capitalization of the Partnership occurred through a series of
transaction in which net assets were contributed from individual partners in
exchange for proportionate interests in the Partnership. In addition, debt was
issued to a third party.

2.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included
herein. Operating results for the six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and
1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. For further information,
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the Partnership's annual financial report.

3.  PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated unaudited interim financial statements included herein reflect
the accounts of the Partnership, its 50% owned subsidiary, McSpadden Smith
Music, LLC, and its Broadway Comics Division. Significant intercompany accounts
and transaction have been eliminated in consolidation.

4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Partnership regularly enters into transactions with an affiliated company
in accordance with a ten-year Management Service Agreement (the "Service
Agreement"), as defined in the Agreement. Accordingly, during the six months
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, management fees under the Service Agreement were
charged to the Partnership in the approximate amounts of $1,107,001 and
$956,000, respectively.

 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)



5.  RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial
statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

6.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Partnership is involved in various legal proceedings from time to time in
the normal course of business. In management's opinion, the litigation in which
the Partnership is currently involved, both individually and in the aggregate,
is not material to the Partnership's financial condition or its results of
operation.

7.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On August 20, 1996, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of
July 30, 1996 among Golden Books Family Entertainment, Inc. (the "Company") and
certain of its subsidiaries and the Partnership, substantially all of the
Partnerships' assets and certain liabilities incurred in connection with the
exploitation of such assets after the related closing were sold for an aggregate
purchase price of $81 million in cash and $10 million in Common Stock of the
Company (901,408 shares).

               UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following set forth the unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet and
unaudited pro forma condensed statement of operations of Golden Books Family
Entertainment, Inc. (the "Company") for the six months ended August 3, 1996 and
the unaudited pro forma condensed statement of operations for the year ended
February 3, 1996, which are derived from the historical Consolidated Financial
Statements of the Company. The unaudited pro forma condensed statement of
operations for the periods presented give pro forma effect to (i) the issuance
of Series B Preferred Stock to Golden Press Holding, L.L.C. (the "GPH
Transaction"), (ii) the acquisition of substantially all of the television and
film library properties of Broadway Video Entertainment, L.P. ("BVE L.P.") and
its affiliates (which constituted substantially all of the assets of BVE, L.P.)
and the assumption of the profit participations payable and all liabilities
incurred in connection with the exploitation of such assets after the closing
(the "Acquisition"), (iii) the issuance of $115 million of Convertible Trust
Originated Preferred Securities by Golden Books Financing Trust (the "Preferred
Securities") (the "Offering"), (iv) the investment by a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Hallmark Cards, Incorporated ("Hallmark") in $25 million of common
stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company (the "Company Common Stock")
(the "Hallmark Investment") and (v) the issuance of 84,967 additional
shares of Company Common Stock to Richard E. Snyder pursuant to his employment
agreement, in each case, as if such transactions had been consummated at the
beginning of the period presented. The unaudited pro forma condensed statements
of operations for the six months ended August 3, 1996 and the year ended
February 3, 1996 reflect the statements of operations information of BVE, L.P.
for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995,
respectively. The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet gives pro forma
effect to (i) the Acquisition, (ii) the issuance of the Preferred Securities in
the Offering, (iii) the Hallmark Investment, (iv) the capital contribution of
$2.0 million by the Company to FUTECH Educational Products, Inc. ("FUTECH") and
(v) the issuance of 84,967 shares of Company Common Stock and options to
purchase 157,796 shares of Company Common Stock to Richard E. Snyder and other
future payments pursuant to his employment agreement, in each case, as if such
transactions had been consummated on August 3, 1996. The pro forma balance
sheet at August 3, 1996 reflects the financial position of BVE, L.P. as of June
30, 1996. The pro forma adjustments are described in the notes hereto and are
based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company
believes are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma condensed financial statements
do not necessarily reflect the results of operations or the financial position
of the Company that actually would have resulted had the transactions above
been consummated as of the date or for the period indicated. The unaudited pro
forma condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
notes hereto, the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the
Company for the year ended February 3, 1996 and for the six months ended
August 3, 1996 and the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
of BVE, L.P. for the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the six months ended
June 30, 1996.

                             (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS)

(g) Represents the incremental amortization due to the application of purchase
    price accounting resulting from the preliminary allocation of the purchase
    price to the film library, goodwill and other intangibles. The film library
    (preliminarily estimated at $40,000) is being amortized using the
    film-forecast method and the goodwill (preliminarily estimated at $51,924)
    and other intangible assets are being amortized on a straight line basis
    over a period of 25 years (preliminary estimate). The preliminary purchase
    price allocation to the film library, goodwill and other intangibles and
    the respective amortization periods are subject to finalization.

(h) Represents the elimination of BVE, L.P.'s historical long-term debt and
    interest expense for the period presented as BVE, L.P.'s long-term debt
    was retired by BVE, L.P. in connection with the Acquisition. Also
    reflects the recognition of non-cash interest expense from amortization of
    deferred financing costs from the Offering.

    Redeemable Convertible Preferred Securities of Golden Books Financing Trust
    Holding Solely Convertible Debentures. Calculated based on offering of
    $115,000 of securities (See Note (b)) and a 8.75% annual dividend rate.

(j) Represents dividends of Company Common Stock paid on the Series B
    Preferred Stock issued in connection with the GPH Transaction. Calculated
    based on 195,000 shares of Company Common Stock issued quarterly utilizing

    on the Series A Preferred Stock is eliminated as the Series A Preferred
    Stock was retired in connection with the GPH Transaction.

    on weighted shares of 21,968,000 and 21,047,000 for the six months and year
    ended August 3, 1996 and February 3, 1996, respectively.

(l) The pro forma loss for the six months and year ended August 3, 1996 and
    February 3, 1996, respectively, has been calculated based on the pro forma
    effect of the GPH Transaction, the issuance of the Preferred Securities and
    the Acquisition. The pro forma loss has been adjusted to reflect the 12%
    Series B Preferred Stock dividend. The pro forma loss per share of Company
    Common Stock has been calculated based on the historical weighted average
    shares outstanding as adjusted for the issuance of shares of Company Common
    Stock to Richard E. Snyder, the dividends of shares of Company Common Stock
    payable to the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock (based on August 3,
    1996 closing stock price), shares issued in connection with the Acquisition
    and shares issued in connection with the Hallmark Investment. The resulting
    adjusted pro forma weighted average shares for the six months and year
    ended August 3, 1996 and February 3, 1996, are 26,285,000 and 25,283,000,
    respectively. All other common stock equivalents including warrants,
    options, Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock were deemed
    anti-dilutive.
