PART I  FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of the Registrant included herein have been
prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Although certain information normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles has been condensed or omitted, the
Registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these
financial statements are read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of
the Registrant for the year ended December 28, 1997.

The financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring accruals) which, in the opinion of management,
are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim
periods.  The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of trends or of results to be expected for a full year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note A  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
The Standard Register Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Uarco
Incorporated, which was acquired on December 31, 1997.  Significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidation process.  Uarco Incorporated was merged into The Standard
Register Company on March 31, 1998.

Note B - Acquisition of Uarco Incorporated

On December 31, 1997, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of Uarco
Incorporated. The purchase price was $245 million in cash, of which $230
million was financed under a new five-year bank revolving credit agreement.

The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method.  The
purchase price will be allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities
assumed based upon their estimated fair market values.  This allocation
has been completed on a preliminary basis, and as a result, adjustments
to the carrying values of assets and liabilities may occur during 1998, as
