                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 June 30, 1996
                                  (unaudited)

Note 1 - Statement of Information Furnished
- -------------------------------------------

In the opinion of management the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring accruals)
necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 1996, and the
results of operations and cash flows for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995.  These results have been determined on the basis of
generally accepted accounting principles and practices applied consistently
with those used in the preparation of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other
period or for the entire year.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted.  The accompanying financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Note 2 - Earnings Per Share
- ---------------------------

Earnings per common share amounts are computed based upon the weighted average
number of common shares actually outstanding during the period.  Common stock
options and purchase warrants, which are considered common stock equivalents,
for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, are not considered in
the average number of shares as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Note 3 - Letter of Credit Facility
- ----------------------------------

In June 1996 the Company renewed its $2,000,000 letter of credit facility with
a bank which expires May 31, 1997.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Results of Operations
- ---------------------

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, were
$4,055,000 and $6,627,000, respectively, as compared to $5,041,000 and
$8,169,000 for the corresponding periods of the preceding year.  The sales
decrease for the three month period of $986,000 was comprised of a decrease of
$1,077,000 in the sales of backlist titles and an increase of $91,000 in the
sales of new titles.  The sales decrease for the six month period of $1,542,000
included a decrease of $1,439,000 in the sales of backlist titles and a
decrease of $103,000 in the sales of new titles. Sales backlog at June 30,
1996, was $7,618,000 compared to $7,067,000 for the preceding year.  Most of
the decrease in sales can be attributed to reduced backlist sales from foreign
customers.  Publishers continue to be conservative worldwide and are either
declining new titles or ordering significantly smaller intial print runs.
Foreign sales accounted for 35% of the Company's net sales for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 1996, as compared to 46% and 41% of sales for
the comparable periods of the preceding year.

Gross profit margin for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996,
was 22.5% and 23.0%, respectively, as compared to 20.7% and 21.6% for the
corresponding periods of 1995. Cost of sales consists primarily of
manufacturing costs, book development amortization and royalties.
Manufacturing costs for the three and six month periods were $2,663,000, or
65.7% of sales, and $4,311,000 or 65.1% of sales, respectively, as compared to
$3,407,000, or 67.6% of sales, and $5,480,000,or 67.1% of sales, in 1995, a
decrease of 1.9% of sales for the quarter and 2.0% for the six month period.
Amortization for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, was $293,000 and
$479,000, respectively, compared to $376,000 and $574,000 in 1995, resulting in
an insignificant change as a percent of sales for either period.  Royalties for
the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, were $162,000 and 265,000 or 4%
of sales for both periods, respectively, as compared to $192,000 and 310,000 or
3.8% of sales for the same periods of 1995.  The improvement in gross profit
margin resulted from higher margins on mini-book sales in the first six months
plus an easing of paper prices partially offset by small increases in
amortization and royalties as a percent of sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1996, increased to $1,063,000 and $2,190,000,
respectively, as compared to $1,053,000 and $2,087,000 for the corresponding
periods of 1995.  This represents increases of $10,000 and $103,000 for the
three and six month periods, respectively.  These expenses comprised of
personnel, selling and administrative are generally fixed and do not fluctuate
with sales.  Personnel expenses were $527,000 and $1,063,000, respectively, for
the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, as compared to
$552,000 and $1,098,000 for the corresponding periods of 1995.  Declines of
$25,000 and  $35,000 for the three and six month periods were primarily
attributable to the Company's measures taken in 1995 to reduce employees and
related personnel expense partially offset by salary increases in the first
quarter of 1996.  Selling expenses were $230,000 and $369,000, respectively,
for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, compared to $238,000
and $432,000 for the same periods in 1995.  Selling



                                       5
<PAGE>   8
expenses were down $8,000 and $63,000 for the three and six month periods of
1996 which included decreases in delivery, sample expenses, and U.K. office
expense partially offset by increases in travel and show expenses.
Administrative expenses were $306,000 and $758,000, respectively, for the three
month and six month periods compared to $263,000 and $557,000 for the same
periods of 1995.  Administrative expenses were up $43,000 and $201,000,
respectively, for the three and six month periods.  The increase for the three
and six months is primarily related to increases in acquisition expenses,
office expenses, and directors' expenses.  Included in the six month increase
is $128,000 for acquisition expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents were $1,346,000 at June 30, 1996, as compared to
$915,000 at December 31, 1995.  Net cash provided by operating activities was
$546,000 as compared to $733,000 for the corresponding period of the previous
year.  The $187,000 decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of
$2,112,000 in accounts receivable partially offset by a decrease of $1,412,000
in accounts payable and a net loss of $403,000 resulting from decreased sales
for the six month period and improved collections of the outstanding
receivables.   Net cash used in investing activities amounted to $115,000 as
compared to $1,687,000 during the same period in 1995.  The decrease in sales
for the six months as compared to the prior year produced less excess cash for
investing.  Additionally, in 1995, the Company invested in municipal bonds to
replace maturing treasury bills which were classified as cash.  This change was
evidenced by the decrease in cash of $992,000 in 1995.  Working capital at June
30, 1996 was $4,169,000 as compared to $4,654,000 at December 31, 1995.

Under a letter agreement, the Company has an obligation to fund the Hunt Group
$400,000 in 1996.  This obligation is being paid at the rate of $33,333 per
month.

In June 1996 the Company renewed its $2,000,000 letter of credit line with City
National Bank which expires on May 31, 1997.  The letter of credit facility is
available only for the issuance of letters of credit and as of  June 30, 1996,
the Company had $1,942,000 available under this letter of credit facility.

As of August 1, 1996, the Company did not have any commitments for any material
capital expenditures for 1996 or beyond.  Management believes that the existing
levels of funds, combined with the Company's ability to generate cash, are
adequate to finance current and expected levels of activity as well as
anticipated capital expenditures of the Company for at least the next twelve
months.
