                      THE STANDARD REGISTER COMPANY
                   MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                   OF THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Net income from the first quarter 1995 was $10.8 million, a 7.6%
increase compared to the $10.0 million result for the comparable
quarter of 1994; earnings per share were $.38 vs. $.35 a year earlier.

Total revenue increased 11.2%, reflecting strong shipment levels in all
major product groups.  Business forms products, representing 77% of all
revenue, increased 8%.  Revenue from promotional direct mail,
representing 12% of all revenue, was up 35% in major part as a result
of the mid-year 1994 acquisition of the Promotional Graphics Division
of UARCO.  Equipment and related maintenance services and supplies
increased 12%, contributing 11% of total revenue.

The Company experienced paper price increases in the first quarter of
1995 continuing the sharp rise in paper prices begun in June 1994. 
Additional paper price increases were announced in April 1995 and the
Company expects that further price increases will occur.  During the
quarter the Company raised forms prices in order to recover these
higher paper costs and expects that effort will be successful over the
long term.  However, the effects of forms price increases will
generally lag behind the effects of increases in paper costs and there
can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in recovering
these cost increases.

As a result of higher paper prices, the Company expects an unfavorable
charge to pretax earnings in 1995.  The first quarter pretax charge was
$2.5 million or $.05 per share after tax.  Additional LIFO adjustments
are expected for the balance of 1995.

Gross margin, revenue less cost of products sold, increased $6.9
million but represented a lesser percentage of revenue - 36.4% versus a
prior year of 36.8%.  Excluding the unfavorable LIFO adjustment, the
gross margin would have improved as a percentage of revenue by .8%.   

Selling, administrative, and R&D expenses increased 10.2% overall,
below the 11.2% rate of revenue growth.  Depreciation expense rose 17%,
reflecting higher capital spending and the effect of the Promotional
Graphics acquisition.  While debt was $6.5 million lower compared to
first quarter 1994, interest expense was higher due to a higher
interest rate environment.

The acquisition by the Company of the FCA Division of Capital Graphics,
Inc., a subsidiary of Household International, Inc. was effective on
March 17, 1995.  The acquisition provides the Company with increased
capacity to meet heavy demand for value-added business forms products
such as secure documents, mailers, roll forms, form/label combination
products and laser forms.  This division, which had 1994 revenues in
excess of $16 million, will be consolidated with the Company's other
forms plants.

Net cash flow for the first quarter 1995 was a negative $14.1 million
vs. an outflow of $4.4 million for the same period of 1994.  The $9.7
million greater outflow in 1995 resulted primarily from the FCA
acquisition and increased capital spending.  1995 capital expenditures
are forecasted at $40 million, including the FCA acquisition.

At quarter-end, cash and cash equivalents stood at $41.1 million. 
Total debt, including current maturities, was $17.5 million, producing
a net cash position of $23.6 million.  Current assets were 3.9 times
the level of current liabilities.  The Company believes that a
combination of internally generated funds and current cash reserves
will be adequate to meet operating and financing needs for the near
term.
