                        Report of Independent Accountants

To the Administrative Committee of
     Hunt Corporation:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the Hunt Corporation Savings Plan (the "Plan") at December 31, 1999 and 1998,
and the changes in net assets available for benefits for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1999 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States, which 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, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes as of December 31, 1999 is presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements
but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the
Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

                          Notes to Financial Statements


1.       Description of Plan:

         The following description of the Hunt Corporation Savings Plan (the
         "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to
         the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's
         provisions.

                  General:

         The Plan is a defined contribution plan which provides individual
         accounts for each participant. The Plan is designed to comply with the
         requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
         amended ("ERISA") and with the requirements of Sections 401(a) and
         401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

                  Eligibility and Participation:

         Generally, all active associates (i.e., employees, including officers)
         of Hunt Corporation and of any participating subsidiary company
         (collectively, the "Company") are eligible to participate in the Plan
         upon meeting the applicable service requirements. Leased employees,
         non-resident aliens, persons classified as independent contractors, and
         associates who are covered by a collective bargaining agreement to
         which the Company or any participating company is a party (unless the
         collective bargaining agreement specifically otherwise provides) are
         not eligible to participate in the Plan. Associates who work in
         full-time, temporary positions as part of an undergraduate or graduate
         degree program, college students enrolled in a degree program, or high
         school graduates matriculating in a degree program who assume temporary
         employment with a participating company during the summer months, and
         associates who are hired for a specific length of time of no more than
         18 consecutive months are eligible to participate in the Plan, but only
         if such associates complete a minimum of 1,000 hours of service during
         the Plan year.

         Associates are eligible to participate in the Associate Pre-Tax
         Contribution portion of the Plan as of the entry date on or after the
         first day of the second month after the month in which the associate
         becomes an eligible employee. Associates are eligible to participate in
         the Matching Contribution portion of the Plan as of the entry date on
         or after the date on which they complete a year of service. (Hunt
         Graphics bargaining unit employees are eligible to participate in the
         Associate Pre-Tax Contribution and Matching Contribution portions of
         the Plan on the January 1, April 1, July 1, or October 1 nearest the
         date on which they complete a year of service.) Eligible associates
         (other than Hunt Graphics bargaining unit employees) who have completed
         at least two consecutive years of service as of any December 1 are
         eligible for

1.       Description of Plan, continued:

         participation in the Basic Contribution portion of the Plan provided
         such eligible associate is employed by a participating company on
         December 1 of the Plan year for which the Basic Contribution is being
         made.

                  Associate Pre-Tax Contributions:

         Subject to the limitations of the Plan and the Code, participants may
         authorize the Company to withhold each year up to 15% (10% for Hunt
         Graphics bargaining unit employees) of their annual pre-tax
         compensation. Participants (other than Hunt Graphics bargaining unit
         employees) also may authorize the Company to withhold a portion of any
         retention bonus included in their annual pre-tax compensation.
         Participants may also make rollover contributions to the Plan of
         qualifying distributions from other qualified plans.

                  Matching Contributions:

         The Company will make Matching Contributions on behalf of participants
         equal to $.25 for each $1.00 of participant contributions up to 6% of
         the participant's pre-tax compensation for each year (excluding
         retention bonuses). (Matching Contributions will be made on behalf of
         Hunt Graphics bargaining unit employees equal to $.50 for each $1.00 of
         participant contributions to the extent such contributions do not
         exceed 3% of the participant's pre-tax compensation for the year.)

                  Basic Contributions:

         The Company may also make a discretionary annual Basic Contribution of
         up to 1% of the base rate of pay, as defined in the Plan (90% of the
         annual compensation of salesmen, 100% of the annual compensation for
         other associates), on behalf of eligible associates whether or not such
         associates make contributions to the Plan. (Basic Contributions are not
         available to Hunt Graphics bargaining unit employees.) Such Basic
         Contributions can only be invested in the Stock Fund and are not
         transferable to other funds.

                  Participant Accounts:

         Each participant's account is credited with the Associate Pre-Tax
         Contribution and allocations of (a) Matching Contributions, (b) Basic
         Contributions, and (c) Plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of
         administrative expenses. Allocations are based on participant earnings
         or account balances, as set forth in the Plan.

                  Vesting:

         A participant's Associate Pre-Tax Contributions (adjusted for earnings
         and losses) and Basic Contributions (adjusted for earnings and losses)
         are always 100% vested and nonforfeitable.

1.       Description of Plan, continued:

         If, while in the service of the Company or any other participating
         company, a participant attains age 65, becomes permanently and totally
         disabled, or dies, the full value of the Matching Contributions
         (adjusted for earnings and losses) allocated to such participant's
         accounts becomes fully vested and is nonforfeitable. Prior to the
         occurrence of such an event, the Matching Contributions (adjusted for
         earnings and losses) will vest based on such participant's years of
         service for vesting (years in which a participant completes 1,000 or
         more hours of service commencing with the date of hire, or in the case
         of Hunt Graphics bargaining unit employees, the calendar year), as
         indicated in the following table:

                Less than 1 year                                  0%
                1 year                                           20%
                2 years                                          40%
                3 years                                          60%
                4 years                                          80%
                5 years or more                                 100%

                  Withdrawals and Distributions:

         Distributions are made according to the vested interest to which
         participants are entitled upon retirement, termination, death, or
         disability. The participant's vested interest will be distributed in
         one lump sum payment, in cash, unless the participant elects to receive
         that portion invested in the Stock Fund in whole shares of common stock
         or in any combination of stock and cash. A participant may also
         withdraw any portion of his or her vested account balances after he or
         she attains age 59-1/2, subject to certain administrative restrictions.
         Otherwise, withdrawals before termination of employment are allowed
         only in cases of hardship as determined as set forth in the Plan.

                  Disposition of Forfeitures:

         Forfeitures of Matching Contributions resulting from the termination of
         participants with less than fully vested rights under the Plan shall be
         applied to reduce Employer's Contributions to the Plan. During 1999 and
         1998, there were $4,633 and $7,628, respectively, of forfeitures used
         to reduce employer contributions. There were no unallocated forfeitures
         at December 31, 1999 and 1998.

                  Plan Amendment and Termination:

         Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
         right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and
         to terminate the Plan. In the event of Plan termination, the net assets
         of the Plan will be distributed to Plan participants and beneficiaries
         in proportion to their respective account balances which will be fully
         vested as a result of such termination. The Company may also amend the
         Plan at any time, subject to certain restrictions.

2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

                  Basis of Accounting:

         The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual
         method of accounting.

                  Investment Valuation:

         Investments are stated at fair value. Quoted market prices are used to
         value investments. Shares of mutual funds are valued at the net asset
         value of shares held by the Plan at year-end.

                  Investment Income:

         Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income from other
         investments is recorded as earned on the accrual basis.

         Purchases and sales of securities are reflected on a trade-date basis.
         Gain or loss on sales of securities is based on average cost.

         The Plan presents in the statements of changes in net assets available
         for benefits the net appreciation (depreciation) in the fair market
         value of its investments which consists of the realized gains or losses
         and the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Plan's
         investments.

                  Plan Expenses:

         Investment management fees and brokerage fees related to transactions
         within the Stock Fund are paid by the Plan. All additional
         administrative fees are paid by the Company.

                  Payment of Benefits:

         Benefits are recorded when paid.

                  Use of Estimates:

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles requires the Administrative Committee to
         make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
         assets, liabilities and changes therein, and disclosures of contingent
         assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those
         estimates.

 2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

                  Risks and Uncertainties:

         Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest
         rate, market and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with
         certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to
         changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least
         reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would
         materially affect participants' account balances and the amounts
         reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the
         statement of changes in net assets available for benefits.


3.       Participant Loans:

         Participants may borrow a minimum of $1,000 and up to a maximum equal
         to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent of their vested account balance.
         The period of repayment may not exceed five years (except in the case
         of a loan to a Hunt Graphics bargaining unit employee for the purpose
         of acquiring a principal residence). Loans are required to be repaid
         through payroll deductions in equal periodic installments of principal
         and interest. The interest rate on a loan is one percentage point above
         the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal on the first
         business day of the month in which the loan is made (the Plan provides
         for use of a reasonable interest rate with respect to Hunt Graphics
         bargaining unit employees). Participant loans mature from January 6,
         2000 to December 28, 2004 and bear interest at 8.75% to 9.75% at
         December 31, 1999.


4.       Investments:

         The following presents investments that represent 5 percent or more of
         the Plan's net assets:

         5500 for benefit claims that have been processed and approved for
         payment prior to December 31 but not yet paid as of that date.


7.      Tax Status:

         The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by
         a letter dated October 27, 1995, that the Plan and related trust are
         designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Code. The Plan
         has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the
         Plan administrator believes that the Plan is designed and is currently
         being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the
         Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the
         Plan's financial statements.


8.       Related Party Transactions:

         American Century  Investors,  Inc. is the recordkeeper and manager of
         the Plan's investments and as such, is a party-in-interest of the Plan.

         The Plan is interpreted, administered, and operated by an
         Administrative Committee comprised entirely of executives of the
         Company.
