The initial public offering of Units in the Trust has been completed. The Units
offered hereby are issued and outstanding Units which have been acquired by the
Sponsor either by purchase from the Trustee of Units tendered for redemption or
in the secondary market.
 
The objectives of the Trust are the providing of interest income which, in the
opinion of counsel is, under existing law, excludable from gross income for
Federal income tax purposes (except in certain instances depending on the Unit
Holder), through investment in a fixed portfolio consisting primarily of
long-term state, municipal and public authority debt obligations, and the
conservation of capital. There is, of course, no guarantee that the Trusts
objectives will be achieved. The value of the Units of the Trust will fluctuate
with the value of the portfolio of underlying Securities. The Securities in the
Trust are not insured by The Prudential Insurance Company of America. The
Prospectus indicates the extent to which interest income of the Trust is subject
to alternative minimum tax under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
See ``Schedule of Portfolio Securities'' and ``Portfolio Summary.''
 
                            Minimum Purchase: 1 Unit
 
PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE of the Units of the Trust is equal to the aggregate bid
side evaluation of the underlying Securities in the Trust's Portfolio divided by
the number of Units outstanding in such Trust, plus a sales charge as set forth
in the table herein. (See Part B--``Public Offering of Units--Volume
Discount.'') Units are offered at the Public Offering Price plus accrued
interest. (See Part B--``Public Offering of Units.'')

                                    SUMMARY
 
    NATIONAL MUNICIPAL TRUST, Series 133 (the ``National Trust'' or the
``Trust'' as the context requires) is composed of interest-bearing municipal
bonds (the ``Securities''). The interest on these bonds, in the opinion of bond
counsel to the issuing governmental authorities is, under existing law,
excludable from gross income for Federal income tax purposes (except in certain
instances depending on the Unit Holder).
 
    MONTHLY DISTRIBUTIONS of principal, premium, if any, and interest received
by the Trust will be made on or shortly after the twenty-fifth day of each month
to Unit Holders of record as of the immediately preceding Record Date. (See Part
B--``Rights of Unit Holders--Distribution of Interest and Principal.'')
Alternatively, Unit Holders may elect to have their distributions reinvested in
the Reinvestment Program of the Sponsor, as, if and when such program is
available to Unit Holders. (See Part B--``Reinvestment Program.'')
 
    THE SPONSOR, although not obligated to do so, presently intends to maintain
a secondary market for the Units in the Trust based on the aggregate bid side
evaluation of the underlying Securities, as more fully described under Part
B--``Public Offering of Units--Secondary Market--Public Offering Price.'' If
such a market is not maintained, a Unit Holder may be able to dispose of his
Units only through redemption at prices based on the aggregate bid side
evaluation of the underlying Securities. (See Part B--``Rights of Unit
Holders--Redemption--Computation of Redemption Price per Unit.'')
 
    SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS. An investment in Units of the Trust should be made
with an understanding of the risks which an investment in fixed rate long-term
debt obligations may entail, including the risk that the value of the Units will
decline with increases in interest rates. (See Part B--``The Trust--Portfolio
Summary.'') The ratings of the Securities set forth in Part A--``Schedule of
Portfolio Securities'' may have declined due to, among other factors, a decline
in creditworthiness of the issuer of said Securities.
 
    Note: In Part B ``Rights of Unit Holders--Distribution of Interest and
Principal,'' the Minimum Principal Distribution Amount is amended to read $1.00
per Unit.
 
    Note: The seventh paragraph on page B-7 in Part B is amended to delete such
paragraph and replace it with the following:
 
    The Puerto Rican economy is affected by a number of Commonwealth and Federal
investment incentive programs. For example, prior to 1996, Section 936 of the
Internal Revenue Code generally provided deferral of Federal income taxes for
U.S. companies operating on the island until profits are repatriated. Section
936 was repealed by the Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996. It is
expected that the repeal of Section 936 will have a strongly negative impact on
Puerto Rico's economy.
 
    Note: In Part B ``Trustee'' the location of the unit investment trust office
of The Chase Manhattan Bank is amended to read 4 New York Plaza, New York, New
York 10004.
 
Portfolio Summary
 
   National Trust
 
    The Portfolio contains 11 issues of Securities of issuers located in 8
states and Puerto Rico. All of the issues are payable from the income of
specific projects or authorities and are not supported by the issuer's power to
levy taxes. Although income to pay such Securities may be derived from more than
one source, the primary sources of such income

                                      A-i
 
<PAGE>
and the percentage of issues deriving income from such sources are as follows:
airport facilities: 23.6%* of the Trust; health and hospital facilities: 39.4%*
of the Trust; housing facilities: 7.9%* of the Trust; power facilities: 14.7%*
of the Trust; resource recovery facilities: 11.4%* of the Trust; water and sewer
facilities: 3.0%* of the Trust. The Trust is concentrated in health and hospital
facilities Securities.
 
    The Portfolio also contains Securities representing 7.9%* of the Trust
(single-family housing securities) which are subject to the requirements of
Section 103A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, or Section 143 
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
 
    Approximately 7.9%* of the Securities in the Trust also contain provisions
which require the issuer to redeem such obligations at par from unused proceeds
of the issue within a stated period which typically does not exceed three years
from the date of issuance of such Securities.
 
    31.0%* of the Securities in the Trust are rated by Standard & Poor's
Corporation (3.0%* being rated AAA, 26.1%* being rated A and 1.9%* being rated
BBB) and 55.7%* of the Securities in the Trust are rated by Moody's Investors
Service (7.9%* being rated Aaa, 24.2%* being rated A and 23.6%* being rated Baa)
and 13.3%* of the Securities in the Trust are not rated. For a description of
the meaning of the applicable rating symbols as published by Standard & Poor's
and Moody's see Part B--``Bond Ratings.'' It should be emphasized, however, that
the ratings of Standard & Poor's and Moody's represent their opinions as to the
quality of the Securities which they undertake to rate and that these ratings
are general and are not absolute standards of quality.
 
    Three Securities in the Trust have been issued with an ``original issue
discount.'' (See Part B--``Tax Status.'')
 
    Of these original issue discount bonds, approximately 6.3% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Securities in the Trust (although only 1.9%* of the
aggregate bid price of all Securities in the Trust) are zero coupon bonds
(including bonds known as multiplier bonds, money multiplier bonds, capital
appreciation bonds, capital accumulator bonds, compound interest bonds, and
discount maturity payment bonds.)
 
   Alternative Minimum Tax
 
    The Sponsor's affiliate, The Prudential Investment Corporation, estimates
that 31.8% of the estimated annual income per Unit consists of interest on
private activity bonds, which interest is to be treated as a tax preference item
for alternative minimum tax purposes. (See ``Tax Status'' and ``Schedule of
Portfolio Securities.'')
 
    The Sponsor participated as sole underwriter or manager or member of
underwriting syndicates from which approximately 1.9%* of the Trust was
acquired.

Securities in the Trust on February 20, 1997.

</TABLE>
 
    (1) The Date of Deposit is the date on which the Indenture was signed and
the deposit of Securities with the Trustee was made.
 
    (2) This Public Offering Price is computed as of February 20, 1997 and may
vary from the Public Offering Price on the date of this Prospectus or any
subsequent date.
 
    (3) Includes Trustee's fee, Sponsor's Portfolio supervision fee, estimated
expenses and Evaluator's fees.
 
    (4) Exclusive of accrued interest which to February 25, 1997, the expected
date of settlement for the purchase of Units on February 20, 1997 was $17.46.
 
    (5) The estimated current return is increased for transactions entitled to a
reduced sales charge. (See Part B--``The Trust''--``Estimated Annual Income and
Current Return per Unit.'')
 
    (6) The Estimated Current Return is calculated by dividing the Estimated Net
Annual Income per Unit by the Public Offering Price per Unit. The Estimated Net
Annual Income per Unit will vary with changes in fees and expenses of the
Trustee and the Evaluator and with the principal prepayment, redemption,
maturity, exchange or sale of Securities while the Public Offering Price will
vary with changes in the bid price of the underlying Securities; therefore,
there is no assurance that the present Estimated Current Return indicated above
will be realized in the future. The Estimated Long-Term Return is calculated on
a pre-tax basis using a formula which takes into consideration, and factors in
the relative weightings of, the market values, yields (which takes into account
the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts) and estimated
retirements of all of the Securities in the Trust and takes into account the
expenses and sales charge associated with each Unit. Since the market values and
estimated retirements of the Securities and the expenses of the Trust will
change, there is no assurance that the present Estimated Long-Term Return as
indicated above will be realized in the future. The after-tax Estimated
Long-Term Return will be lower to the extent of any taxation on the disposition
of Securities. The Estimated Current Return and Estimated Long-Term Return are
expected to differ because the calculation of the Estimated Long-Term Return
reflects the estimated date and amount of principal returned while the Estimated
Current Return calculations include only Net Annual Interest Income and Public
Offering Price as of the above indicated calculation date of the Summary of
Essential Information.

                        INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

THE UNIT HOLDERS, SPONSOR AND TRUSTEE
NATIONAL MUNICIPAL TRUST
SERIES 133

We have audited the statement of financial condition and schedule of 
portfolio securities of the National Municipal Trust Series 133 as of 
November 30, 1996, and the related statements of operations and changes in 
net assets for each of the three years in the period then ended.  These 
financial statements are the responsibility of the Trustee (see Footnote 
(a)(1)).  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial 
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  
Our procedures included confirmation of the securities owned as of 
November 30, 1996 as shown in the statement of financial condition and 
schedule of portfolio securities by correspondence with The Chase Manhattan 
Bank, the Trustee.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting 
principles used and the significant estimates made by the Trustee, as well 
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that 
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, 
in all material respects, the financial position of the National Municipal 
Trust Series 133 as of November 30, 1996, and the results of its operations 
and the changes in its net assets for each of the three years in the period 
then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

(a) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a 
Unit Investment Trust.  The following is a summary of the significant 
accounting policies of the Trust:

(1) Basis of Presentation

    The Trustee has custody of and responsibility for all accounting and 
financial books, records, financial statements and related data of 
the Trust and is responsible for establishing and maintaining a 
system of internal controls directly related to, and designed to 
provide reasonable assurance as to the integrity and reliability 
of, financial reporting of the Trust.  The Trustee is also 
responsible for all estimates and accruals reflected in the Trust's 
financial statements.  The Evaluator determines the price for each 
underlying Security included in the Trust's Schedule of Portfolio 
Securities on the basis set forth in Part B of this Prospectus, 
"Public Offering of Units - Public Offering Price".  Under the 
Securities Act of 1933 ("the Act"), as amended, the Sponsor is 
deemed to be an issuer of the Trust Units.  As such, the Sponsor 
has the responsibility of an issuer under the Act with respect to 
financial statements of the Trust included in the Registration 
Statement under the Act and amendments thereto.

(2) Investments

    Investments are stated at market value as determined by the 
Evaluator based on the bid side evaluations on the last day of 
trading during the period, except that value on the date of deposit 
(December 19, 1990) represents the cost of investments to the Trust 
based on the offering side evaluations as of the date of deposit.

(3) Income Taxes

    The Trust is not an association taxable as a corporation for Federal 
income tax purposes; accordingly, no provision is required for such 
taxes.

(4) Expenses

    The Trust pays an annual Trustee's fee, estimated expenses, 
Evaluator's fees, and an annual Sponsor's portfolio supervision 
fee, and may incur additional charges as explained under "Expenses 
and Charges" in Part B of this Prospectus.

(b) DISTRIBUTIONS

    Interest received by the Trust is distributed to the Unit Holders on or 
shortly after the twenty-fifth day of the month, after deducting 
applicable expenses.  Receipts other than interest are distributed as 
explained in "Rights of Units Holders - Distribution of Interest and 
Principal" in Part B of this Prospectus.

offering price as of the date of deposit (December 19, 1990) exclusive 
of accrued interest.

 <F1>All ratings are provided by Standard & Poor's Corporation, unless 
otherwise indicated.  A brief description of applicable Security 
ratings is given under "Bond Ratings" in Part B of this Prospectus.

 <F2>There is shown under this heading the date on which each issue of 
Securities is redeemable by the operation of optional call 
provisions and the redemption price for that date; unless otherwise 
indicated, each issue continues to be redeemable at declining 
prices thereafter but not below par.  Securities listed as non-
callable, as well as Securities listed as callable, may also be 
redeemable at par under certain circumstances from special 
redemption payments.

 <F3>There is shown under this heading the date on which an issue of 
Securities is subject to scheduled sinking fund redemption and the 
redemption price on such date.

 <F4>The market value of the Securities as of November 30, 1996 was 
determined by the Evaluator on the basis of bid side evaluations 
for the Securities on the last trading date during the period 
(November 29, 1996).

 <F5>At November 30, 1996, the net unrealized market appreciation of all 
Securities was comprised of the following:

<TABLE>
       <S>                                             <C>
       Gross unrealized market appreciation            $877,070
       Gross unrealized market depreciation              (3,991)
       Net unrealized market appreciation              $873,079
</TABLE>

    The amortized cost of the Securities for Federal income tax purposes 
was $12,371,415 at November 30, 1996.

 <F6>In the opinion of bond counsel to the issuing governmental 
authorities, interest payments on these bonds will be a tax 
preference item for individuals and corporations for alternative 
minimum tax purposes.  Normally, the bonds pay interest 
semiannually.  The payment dates can generally be determined based 
on the date of maturity, i.e., a bond maturing on December 1, will 
pay interest semiannually on June 1 and December 1.  See "Tax 
Status" in Part B of this Prospectus.

 <F7>Moody's Investors Service, Inc. rating.

 <F8>The Issuers of Portfolio Nos. 2, 5 and 6 have indicated that they 
will refund these Securities on their respective optional 
redemption dates.

 <F9>Face amounts of $50,000 and $600,000, respectively, were called for 
redemption on December 1, 1996.  Such Securities are valued at the 
amount of the proceeds subsequently received.

<F10>This Security, although unrated, has, in the opinion of the Sponsor, 
credit characteristics comparable to an investment grade Security.
