Defined Asset FundsSM
Defined Asset Funds is America's oldest and largest family of unit investment
trusts, with over $115 billion sponsored over the last 25 years. Each Defined
Asset Fund is a portfolio of preselected securities. The portfolio is divided
into 'units' representing equal shares of the underlying assets. Each unit
receives an equal share of income and principal distributions.
 
Defined Asset Funds offer several defined 'distinctives'. You know in advance
what you are investing in and that changes in the portfolio are limited - a
defined portfolio. Most defined bond funds pay interest monthly - defined
income. The portfolio offers a convenient and simple way to invest - simplicity
defined.
 
Your financial professional can help you select a Defined Asset Fund to meet
your personal investment objectives. Our size and market presence enable us to
offer a wide variety of investments. The Defined Asset Funds family offers:
 
  o Municipal portfolios
o Corporate portfolios
o Government portfolios
o Equity portfolios
o International portfolios
 
The terms of Defined Funds are as short as one year or as long as 30 years.
Special defined bond funds are available including: insured funds, double and
triple tax-free funds and funds with 'laddered maturities' to help protect
against changing interest rates. Defined Asset Funds are offered by prospectus
only.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
Defining Your Portfolio
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
 
The 37 stocks represented in the Fund are issued by companies that are among the
oldest, largest or most profitable American companies in their respective
industries with established records of earnings. These are commonly known as
'blue chip' stocks. All but one have paid uninterrupted dividends over a
relatively long period of time. One issuer, Berkshire Hathaway Inc., does not
pay dividends but in the opinion of Defined Asset Funds research analysts
otherwise qualifies as a blue chip stock and trades at a price prohibitive to
most individual investors. Investing in the Portfolio, rather than in only one
or two of the underlying common stocks, is a way to diversify your investment.
This Fund was created August 22, 1995. The information in this Prospectus is as
of July 31, 1998, the evaluation date. Based upon the principal business of each
issuer and current market values, the following industries are represented in
the Portfolio:
                                                                     APPROXIMATE

- ----------------------------------------------------------------
Defining Your Risks
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
 
Unit price fluctuates with the value of the Portfolio, and the value of the
Portfolio could be affected by changes in the financial condition of the
issuers, changes in the various industries represented in the Portfolio,
movements in stock prices generally, the impact of the Sponsors' purchase and
sale of the securities. Therefore, there is no guarantee that the objective of
the Portfolio will be achieved.
 
The Fund is not considered to be concentrated in any particular category of
securities (see Risk Factors in Part B).
 
Unlike a mutual fund, the Portfolio is not actively managed and the Sponsors
receive no management fee. Therefore, the adverse financial condition of an
issuer or any market movement in the price of a security will not necessarily
require the sale of securities from the Portfolio or mean that the Sponsors will
not continue to purchase the security in order to create additional Units.
Although the Portfolio is regularly reviewed and evaluated and Sponsors may
instruct the Trustee to sell securities under certain limited circumstances,
securities will not be sold to take advantage of market fluctuations or changes
in anticipated rates of appreciation.

Defining Your Investment
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
 
PUBLIC OFFERING PRICE PER 1,000 UNITS                  $1,822.45
 
The Public Offering Price as of July 31, 1998, the evaluation date, is based on
the aggregate value of the underlying securities ($129,238,230) divided by the
number of units outstanding (72,361,888) times 1,000, plus the initial sales
charge. An amount equal to principal cash and income cash adjustments is added
to the Public Offering Price. The Public Offering Price on any subsequent date
will vary. The underlying securities, are valued by the Trustee on the basis of
their closing sale prices at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on every business day.
 
SALES CHARGES
 
The total sales charge for this investment combines an initial up-front sales
charge and a deferred sales charge that will be deducted from the net asset
value of the Portfolio quarterly on the 10th of February, May and August, 1999.
The sales charge reduction for quantity purchases shown in Part B is not
available for this Fund.
 
QUARTERLY INCOME DISTRIBUTIONS
 
Distributions of income, if any, will be paid on the 25th day of December, March
and June, 1999, to Holders of record on the 10th day of those months. In order
to meet certain tax requirements, a special distribution of income including
capital gains, may be paid to holders of record as of a date in December. Any
capital gain net income will generally be distributed after the end of the year.
REINVESTMENT OPTION
 
You can elect to automatically reinvest your distributions into additional units
of the Portfolio subject only to the deferred sales charge remaining at the time
of reinvestment. Reinvesting helps to compound your income for a greater total
return.
 
TAXES
 
Distributions which are taxable as ordinary income to Holders will constitute
dividends for Federal income tax purposes and may, subject to certain
limitations, be eligible for the dividends-received deduction for certain
corporations (see Taxes in Part B). Foreign holders should be aware that
distributions from the Fund will generally be subject to information reporting
and withholding taxes.
 
TAX BASIS REPORTING
 
The proceeds received when you sell this investment will reflect the deduction
of the deferred sales charge. In addition, the annual statement and the relevant
tax reporting forms you receive at year-end will reflect the actual amount paid
to you (not including the deferred sales charge). Accordingly, you should not
increase your basis in your units by the deferred sales charge.
 
TERMINATION DATE
 
The Portfolio will terminate by August 31, 1999. The final distribution will be
made within a reasonable time afterward. The Portfolio may be terminated earlier
if its value is less than 40% of the value of the securities when deposited. On
the evaluation date, the value of the Portfolio was 129% of the value of the
securities when deposited.
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
Defining Your Costs
- ----------------------------------------------------------------
SALES CHARGE
 
First-time investors pay a 2.00% sales charge when they buy. In addition, a
deferred sales charge of $1.625 per 1,000 units will be deducted on the 10th day
of February, May and August. The sales charge reduction for quantity purchases
shown in Part B is not available for this Fund. Although this is a unit
investment trust rather than a mutual fund, the following information is
presented to permit a comparison of fees and an understanding of the direct or
indirect costs and expenses that you pay.

                                                   1,000 Units

Trustee's Fee                                        $    0.82

                                                  ---------------
TOTAL                                                $    2.24

 
This Portfolio (and therefore the investors) will bear all or a portion of its
organizational costs--including costs of preparing the registration statement,
the trust indenture and other closing documents, registering units with the SEC
and the states, fees of the Portfolio Consultant and the initial audit of the
Portfolio--as is common for mutual funds.
 
REDEEMING OR SELLING YOUR INVESTMENT
 
You may redeem or sell your units at any time prior to the termination of the
Portfolio. Your price will be based on the then current net asset value. The
redemption and secondary market repurchase price as of the evaluation date was
$1,786.00 per 1,000 units ($36.45 per 1,000 units less than the Public Offering
Price). This price reflects deductions of the deferred sales charge which
declines over the life of the Portfolio. If you sell your units before the
termination of the Portfolio, no further deferred sales charges will be
deducted.

<S>              <C>

We have audited the accompanying statement of condition of Equity Investor Fund, Blue Chip 
Stock Series 3, Premier American Portfolio, Defined Asset Funds, including the portfolio, 
as of July 31, 1998 and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets 
for the years ended July 31, 1998 and 1997 and the period August 23, 1995 to July 31, 1996.  
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trustee.  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

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.  Securities owned at July 31, 1998, as shown on such portfolio, were 
confirmed to us by The Chase Manhattan Bank, the Trustee.  An audit also includes assessing 
the accounting principles used and 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 Equity Investor Fund, Blue Chip Stock Series 3, Premier 
American Portfolio, Defined Asset Funds at July 31, 1998 and the results of its operations 
and changes in its net assets for the above-stated periods in conformity with generally

the-counter market.  See "How to Sell Units - Trustee's Redemption of Units" in 
this Prospectus, Part B.  Gains or losses on sales of securities are computed using 
the first-in, first-out method.

taxes is required.

(c)  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
