 BLAIR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

 June 30, 2003

 NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Blair
 Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance
 with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim
 financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
 Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
 footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
 financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
 of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
 been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2003 are not
 necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
 December 31, 2003. For further information refer to the financial statements
 and footnotes included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year
 ended December 31, 2002.

 The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Blair Corporation
 and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts are
 eliminated upon consolidation.

 As of June 30, 2003 the Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary, Allegheny
 Trail Corp., to launch a wholesale business targeted primarily at outdoor
 sporting goods and recreational retailers. Allegheny Trail will offer a core
 product line of men's and women's outdoor apparel basics at entry-level price
 points allowing retailers to be more competitive with major brands. Virtually
 no activity took place with regard to this entity in the second quarter
 of 2003.

 NOTE C - Stock Compensation
 In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
 Standards No. 123 the Company has elected to continue applying the provisions
 of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in
 accounting for its stock-based compensation plans. Accordingly, the Company
 does not recognize compensation expense for stock options when the stock
 option price at the grant date is equal to or greater than the fair market
 value of the stock at that date. The following illustrates the pro forma
 effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the
 fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued                     -8-


BLAIR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

June 30, 2003

NOTE C - Stock Compensation - continued

Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by
SFAS No. 123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its
stock options under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123. The fair value for
these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option
pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free
interest rates of 3.49%, 4.95% and 5.20% for stock options issued 4/15/03,
4/15/02 and 4/16/01, respectively; dividend yields of 2.54%, 3.11% and 3.50% for
stock options issued 4/15/03, 4/15/02 and 4/16/01, respectively; volatility
factors of the expected market price of the Company's common stock of .540, .564
and .547 for stock options issued 4/15/03, 4/15/02 and 4/16/01, respectively;
and a weighted-average expected life of 7 years for the stock options issued
4/15/03, 4/15/02 and 4/16/01. The per share fair value of the options granted
was determinded to be $10.63, $8.83 and $7.40 for stock options issued 4/15/03,
4/15/02 and 4/16/01, respectively.

NOTE D - EARNINGS PER SHARE AND WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES OUTSTANDING Earnings per
share are computed in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings per share are computed
using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the period. For diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of
shares includes common stock equivalents related to stock options.

The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted earnings
per share as required by Statement No. 128:

The liability method is used in accounting for income taxes. Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between
financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured
using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences
are expected to reverse.

The components of income tax expense are as follows:

In a previous year, the Company incurred a net operating loss of approximately
$21 million in the State of Pennsylvania. Only $20 million of the net operating
loss is available to offset future income in the state because Pennsylvania
limits the annual net operating loss carry forward to $2 million for 10 years. A
deferred tax asset has been established based on the $20 million net operating
loss available to be carried forward. The deferred tax asset is offset by a
valuation allowance because it is uncertain as to whether the Company will
generate sufficient income in the State of Pennsylvania in the future to absorb
the net operating loss before they expire in 2011.

NOTE H - INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost of merchandise
inventories is determined principally on the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method.
Cost of advertising and shipping supplies is determined on the first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method. Advertising and shipping supplies include printed
advertising material and related mailing supplies for promotional mailings which
are generally scheduled to occur within two months. These costs are expensed
when mailed. If the FIFO method had been used for all inventories, inventories
would have increased by approximately $5,676,000 at both June 30, 2003 and
December 31, 2002. The Company has a reserve for slow moving and obsolete
inventory amounting to $3,940,000 at June 30, 2003, $4,000,000 at December 31,
2002 and $4,321,000 at June 30, 2002.

NOTE J - FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

On December 20, 2001, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with PNC Bank,
National Association, as agent, and certain other banks. The Agreement put in
place a syndicated revolving credit facility of up to $30 million, secured by
inventory and certain other assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. As of
June 30, 2003, the facility had lender commitments of $28 million. The revolving
credit facility expires on December 20, 2004. The credit agreement was amended
on July 25, 2003 to increase the commitments to the facility from $28 million to
$30 million. See Footnote Q Subsequent Events for further discussion. For each
borrowing tranche, the Company may select from three options to determine the
interest rate.

The options are: a base rate option (greater of Prime or Fed Funds Rate plus .5%
as of June 30, 2003); swing loan rate option (as quoted by PNC Bank); or
Euro-rate option (Euro-rate plus 1.50%) as defined in the Credit Agreement. The
Company is required to meet certain covenants that relate to tangible net worth,
maintaining a defined leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio, and
complying with certain indebtedness restrictions. As of June 30, 2003, the
Company was in compliance with all the Agreement's covenants. At June 30, 2003,
the Company had no borrowings (loans) outstanding, but had letters of credit
totaling $14.8 million outstanding, which reduces the amount of borrowings
available under the Credit Agreement. At December 31, 2002, the Company had no
borrowings (loans) outstanding, but had letters of credit totaling $16.2 million
outstanding. At June 30, 2002, the Company had no borrowings (loans)
outstanding, but had letters of credit totaling $13.6 million outstanding under
the Credit Agreement.

Also, on December 20, 2001, the Company completed a securitization of up to $100
million in accounts receivable with PNC Bank, National Association, as
administrator, and certain conduit purchasers. At December 20, 2001, the
securitization had initial lender commitments of $50 million. On April 9, 2003,
the securitization was amended to increase the commitment level from $50 million
to $70 million and extend the term to April 7, 2006. The interest rate charged
approximates 1-month LIBOR plus 55 basis points. The amended securitization
increased the interest rate spread to 80 basis points. The Company sells all
right, title and interest in and to certain of its accounts receivable to Blair
Factoring Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary. Blair Factoring Company is a
separate bankruptcy remote special purpose entity that entered into a
Receivables Purchase Agreement with PNC Bank, National Association, as
administrator, and certain conduit purchasers. The Company's consolidated
financial statements reflect all the accounts of Blair Factoring Company,
including the receivables and secured borrowings. Transactions entered into
under the Receivables Purchase Agreement are considered secured borrowings and
collateral transactions under the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities. At June 30, 2003, $70
million of the $100 million was available to the Company. The interest rate
approximates 1-month LIBOR plus 80 basis points as defined in the Receivables
Purchase Agreement. The securitization requires certain performance standards
for the Company's accounts receivable portfolio in addition to complying with
the covenants in the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2003, the Company was in
compliance with all the requirements of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. At
June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002, and June 30, 2002 the Company had $15 million
outstanding, the minimum amount required to be outstanding under the terms of
the Receivables Purchase Agreement, all of which was classified as short-term.

NOTE K - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No.
142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS No. 143 Accounting For
Asset Retirement Obligations.  The Company adopted SFAS No. 148,
Accounting For Stock-Based Compensation Transition and Disclosure an
amendment of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
effective the year ending December 31,2002.
SFAS No. 145, Recission of FASB No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement
No. 13, and Technical Corrections, and FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor's
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others were adopted by the Company effective
January 1, 2003. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact
on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets which supersedes SFAS No. 121 Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
Disposed Of. Although retaining many of the provisions of SFAS No. 121, SFAS
No. 144 establishes a uniform accounting model for long-lived assets to be
disposed. The Company's adoption of this statement in the first quarter of
2002 did not have an impact on the Company's financial results, but does
impact the accounting treatment of the planned sale of the Blair Outlet
Store in Erie, Pa. (See Note L)

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with
Exit or Disposal Activities when the liability is incurred and not as a result
of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. The statement is effective for exit
or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company's adoption
of this statement in the first quarter 2003 did not have an impact on the
Company's financial results, but does impact the accounting treatment of the
voluntary separation of employees due to the planned sale of the Blair Outlet
Store in Erie. (See Note M)

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149 Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement amends and
clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for
hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities. This statement is generally effective for contracts entered
into or modified after June 30, 2003. The Company believes the adoption of this
standard will not have a material impact on its results of operations or
financial condition.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. This statement
establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures in its statement
of financial position certain financial instruments with characteristics of both
liabilities and equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments
entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise at the beginning of
the Company's fourth quarter. The Company believes the adoption of this standard
will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial
condition.

NOTE L - Long-lived AssetS Classified as Held for Sale Upon review of the
Company's inventory liquidation strategy, the Company made the decision in
January 2003 to close its liquidation outlet store located in Erie, Pa. This
closure was effective at the close of business on March 28, 2003. The Company
intends to sell the building and believes that the sale will be completed by
March 2004. Evolvement of the Company's inventory liquidation strategy into more
rapid and profitable methods of disposing obsolete and excess inventory led to
this decision. Over the past three years, package insertions, telephone upsell
promotions, sale catalogs and the growing e-commerce channel have proven to be
more successful and profitable in moving inventory than the traditional outlet
sales process. The

NOTE L - Long-lived AssetS Classified as Held for Sale - continued

$1,368,526 shown as Assets Held for Sale at June 30, 2003 and the $1,669,299
shown as Assets Held for Sale at December 31, 2002 consist of the net book value
of the land, land improvements and building. The carrying value of the asset was
reduced as a result of the level of interest in the asset.

NOTE M - VOLUNTARY SEPARATION PROGRAM
In the first quarter of 2003, the Company accrued and charged to expense $75,000
in separation costs. The costs were charged to General and Administrative
Expense in the income statement. The one-time $75,000 charge represents
severance pay, related payroll taxes and medical benefits due the 32 eligible
employees who accepted the voluntary separation program offered in connection
with closing the Company's Outlet Store located in Erie, Pennsylvania on March
28, 2003. As of June 30, 2003, $53,000 has been paid. This liability is
considered satisfied and resulted in $22,000 being taken back to income.

In the first quarter of 2001, the Company accrued and charged to expense $2.5
million in separation costs. The costs were charged to General and
Administrative Expense in the income statement. The one-time $2.5 million charge
represents severance pay, related payroll taxes and medical benefits due the 56
eligible employees who accepted the voluntary separation program rather than
relocate or accept other positions in the Company. The program was offered to
eligible employees of the Blair Mailing Center from which the merchandise
returns operations have been relocated and the mailing operations have been
outsourced. As of June 30, 2003, approximately $1.56 million of the $2.5 million
has been paid.

NOTE N - CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in certain items of litigation, arising in the normal
course of business. While it cannot be predicted with certainty, management
believes that the outcome will not have a material effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE O - USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE P - RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to
conform with the current year presentation.

NOTE Q - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company amended its December 20, 2001 revolving credit facility as of July
25, 2003. The amendment increases the total commitments, including letters of
credit, from $28 million to $30 million. The limit for letters of credit
increased from $20 million to $30 million.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Second Quarter 2003 and Second Quarter 2002

Net income for the second quarter ended June 30, 2003 decreased 41.7% to
$4,100,653 or $.51 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of
$7,032,678, or $.88 per basic and diluted share, for the second quarter ended
June 30, 2002. Results for the second quarter of 2003 reflect the impact of
increases in cost of goods sold and advertising expenses.

Net sales for the second quarter of 2003 increased $6.8 million to $154.3
million or 4.6% compared to net sales for the second quarter of 2002. The
increase in net sales was primarily attributable to strategic increases in
catalog mailings to current customers that served to generate sales and improve
inventory management. Actual response rates were lower in the second quarter of
2003 than in the second quarter of 2002. Gross sales revenue generated per
advertising dollar decreased approximately 7% in the second quarter of 2003 as
compared to the second quarter of 2002. The total number of orders shipped
increased 7% while the average order size decreased 3% in the second quarter of
2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002. The provision for returned
merchandise as a percentage of gross mail order sales decreased 6% or $1.4
million in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002.
Management believes that this decrease is attributed to ongoing efforts to
improve product quality and fit.

Other income is flat in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second
quarter of 2002.

Cost of goods sold increased $3.8 million or 5.5% to $72.8 million in the second
quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002. As a percentage of
net sales, cost of goods sold increased to 47.1% in the second quarter of 2003
from 46.7% in the second quarter of 2002. The increase in cost of goods sold
reflects an increase in sales generated from promotional activities intended to
address lower response rates. In addition, higher inbound freight expenses and
the postal rate increase of approximately 10% that took place on June 30, 2002
and impacted outbound shipping expense, contributed to the increase.

Advertising expenses in the second quarter of 2003 increased $4.6 million or
12.6% to $41.5 million from the second quarter of 2002. Strategic increases in
catalog mailings to current customers account for the majority of the increase.
The June 30, 2002 postal rate increase and a 2% increase in printing costs
effective April 1, 2003 also contributed to this variance.

The total number of catalog mailings released in the second quarter of 2003
increased by 9.5 million or 20% as compared to the second quarter of 2002. The
total number of prospect catalog mailings decreased by 1.1 million or 6%
compared to the second quarter of 2002. Print advertising for Crossing Pointe is
all via catalog and is included in the catalog mailings numbers.

The total number of letter mailings released in the second quarter of 2003
decreased by 1.2 million or 6% versus the second quarter of 2002.

Total circulation of the co-op and media advertising programs increased by 2.9
million pieces or 2% in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second
quarter of 2002.

The Company launched e-commerce sites for Blair www.blair.com and Crossing
Pointe www.crossingpointe.com in the third quarter of 2000. In the second
quarter of 2003, the Company generated $22.8 million in e-commerce gross sales
demand, as compared to $16.1 million in the second quarter of 2002.

General and administrative expense increased $1.6 million or 4.9% to $34.9
million in the second quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002.
The higher general and administrative expense was primarily attributable to
increased employee costs and additional bank fees incurred as part of rate
increases for check processing and costs associated with the amended
securitization. The amended securitization, which is discussed further in the
"Liquidity and Sources of Capital" section, provided additional liquidity and
extended the term.

The provision for doubtful accounts increased $1.1 million or 15.4% to $8.4
million from the second quarter of 2003 to the second quarter of 2002. The
estimated bad debt rate used in the second quarter of 2003 was approximately 12%
or 89 basis points higher than the bad debt rate used in the second quarter of
2002. The estimated bad debt rate has increased primarily due to increased
credit offers to both Blair and Crossing Pointe prospects, which traditionally
result in higher bad debts. These offers to prospects are intended to increase
sales and the Company's customer file.

The provision for doubtful accounts is based on current expectations (consumer
credit and economic trends, etc.), sales mix (prospect/customer) and current and
prior years' experience, especially delinquencies (accounts over 30 days past
due) and actual charge-offs (accounts removed from accounts receivable for
non-payment). At June 30, 2003, the delinquency rate of open accounts receivable
was approximately 10% or 121 basis points higher than at June 30, 2002.
Conversely, the charge-off rate for the second quarter of 2003 was 3% or 4 basis
points less than the charge-off rate for the first quarter of 2002. Recoveries
of bad debts previously charged off have been credited back against the
allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts as a
percentage of delinquent accounts decreased 5% or 861 basis points at June 30,
2003 as compared to June 30, 2002. The allowance for doubtful accounts as a
percentage of open accounts is the same at June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002. At
this time, the Company feels that the allowance for doubtful accounts is
sufficient to cover the charge-offs from the current customer accounts
receivable portfolio. Also, credit granting, collection and behavior models
continue to be updated and improved, and, along with expanding database
capabilities, provide valuable credit-marketing opportunities.

Interest expense decreased approximately $30,000 or 24% to $95,380 in the second
quarter of 2003 as compared to the second quarter of 2002. Interest expense
results primarily from the Company's required borrowings under the Receivables
Purchase Agreement. Interest rates have been lower in the second quarter of
2003.

Income taxes as a percentage of income before income taxes were 38.2% in the
second quarter of 2003 and 36.0% in the second quarter of 2002. The federal
income tax rate was 35% in both years. The difference in the total income tax
rate was caused by a change in the Company's effective state income tax rate.

Comparison of Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2003 and June 30,2002

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 decreased 63.6% to $4,600,842,
or $.57 per share, as compared to $12,633,809, or $1.58 per share, for the six
months ended June 30, 2002. Results for the first six months of 2003 reflect
increases in cost of goods sold, advertising expenses, general & administrative
expenses and the provision for doubtful accounts.

Net sales for the first six months of 2003 increased $8.6 million to $291.4
million or 3% greater than net sales for the first six months of 2002. The
increase in net sales was primarily attributable to strategic increases in
catalog and letter mailings to current and prospective customers that served to
generate sales, grow the customer file and improve inventory management. Actual
response rates in the first six months of 2003 were lower than in the first six
months of 2002. Gross sales revenue generated per advertising dollar decreased
approximately 8% in the first six months of 2003 as compared to the first six
months of 2002. The provision for returned merchandise as a percentage of gross
mail order sales decreased 3.5% or $1.6 million in the first six months of 2003
as compared to the first six months of 2002. Management attributes this
favorable change to improved product quality and fit.

Other income decreased approximately $287,000 or 1.4% to $19.7 million in the
first six months of 2003 as compared to the first six months of 2002. Lower
finance charges and commissions were primarily responsible for the small
reduction in other income. The lower finance charges resulted from decreased
customer accounts receivable and the lower commissions resulted from decreased
continuity program activity.

Cost of goods sold increased $7.1 million or 5.4% to $140.6 million in the first
six months of 2003 as compared to the same period in 2002. As a percentage of
net sales, cost of goods sold increased to 48.3% in the first six months of 2003
from 47.2% in the first half 2002. The increase in cost of goods sold reflects
an increase in sales generated from promotional activities intended to address
lower response rates. Further, higher inbound freight expenses, a greater mix of
outbound packages in excess of one pound that increased shipping costs and the
postal rate increase of approximately 10% that took place on June 30, 2002
contributed to the increase.

Advertising expenses in the first six months of 2003 increased $9.0 million or
12.7% to $80.1 million. Strategic increases in catalog and letter mailings to
current and prospective customers account for the majority of the increase. The
June 30, 2002 postal rate increase and a 2% increase in printing costs effective
April 1, 2003 also contributed to this variance.

The total number of catalog mailings released in the first six months of 2003
was 24.0 million or 28.1% greater than those released in the first six months of
2002.

The total number of letter mailings released in the first six months of 2003 was
33.5 million or 2.7% greater than those released in the first six months of
2002.

Total circulation of the co-op and media advertising programs increased 19.6
million pieces or 4.3% in the first six months of 2003 as compared to the first
six months of 2002.

The Company launched e-commerce sites for Blair www.blair.com and Crossing

Comparison of Six Month Periods Ended June 30, 2003 and June 30,2002 - continued

In the first six months of 2003, the Company has generated $41.7 million in
e-commerce gross sales demand, an increase of 30.7% in the first six months of
2002. In all of 2002, the Company generated $65.7 million in e-commerce orders.

General and administrative expense increased $2.7 million from $63.8 million to
$66.5 million or 4.2% in the first six months of 2003 as compared to the first
six months of 2002. The higher general and administrative expense in the first
six months of 2003 was primarily attributable to increased employee costs,
additional bank fees and costs incurred to service an expanded credit program.
The increased employee costs were associated with the completion of enhancements
and automation of the Company's fulfillment capabilities. The additional bank
fees were incurred as part of rate increases for check processing and costs
associated with the amended securitization. The amended securitization, which is
discussed further in the "Liquidity and Sources of Capital" section, provided
additional liquidity and extended the term.

The provision for doubtful accounts increased $1.7 million from $14.5 million to
$16.2 million or 12.0% from the first six months of 2003 compared to the same
period in 2002. The estimated bad debt rate used in the first six months of 2003
was approximately 10% or 78 basis points higher than the bad debt rate used in
the first six months of 2002. The estimated bad debt rate has increased
primarily due to increased credit offers to both Blair and Crossing Pointe
prospects, which traditionally result in higher bad debts. These offers to
prospects are made to increase sales and to build the customer file.

The provision for doubtful accounts is based on current expectations (consumer

charge-off rate for the first six months of 2003 was 4% or 5 basis points
greater than the charge-off rate for the first six months of 2002. Recoveries of
bad debts previously charged off have been credited back against the allowance
for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of
delinquent accounts decreased 5% or 861 basis points at June 30, 2003 as
compared to June 30, 2002. The allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage
of open accounts receivable is the same at June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002. At

Interest expense decreased approximately $62,000 to $184,840 or 25.1% in the
first six months of 2003 as compared to the first six months of 2002. Interest
expense results primarily from the Company's required borrowings under the
Receivables Purchase Agreement. Interest rates have been lower in the first six
months of 2003.

Income taxes as a percentage of income before income taxes were 38.1% in the
first six months of 2003 and 35.7% in the first six months of 2002. The federal
income tax rate was 35% in both years. The difference in the total income tax

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

All working capital and cash requirements for the first six months of 2003 were
met using funds from operations and surplus cash.

On December 20, 2001, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with PNC Bank,
National Association, as agent, and certain other banks. The Agreement put in
place a syndicated revolving credit facility of up to $30 million, secured by
inventory and certain other assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. As of
June 30, 2003, the facility had lender commitments of $28 million. The revolving
credit facility expires on December 20, 2004. For each borrowing tranche, the
Company may select from three options to determine the interest rate. The
options are: a base rate option (greater of Prime or Fed Funds Rate plus .5% as
of June 30, 2003); swing loan rate option (as quoted by PNC Bank); or Euro-rate
option (Euro-rate plus 1.50%) as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Company is
required to meet certain covenants that relate to tangible net worth,
maintaining a defined leverage ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio, and
complying with certain indebtedness restrictions. As of June 30, 2003, the
Company was in compliance with all the Credit Agreement's covenants. At June 30,
2003, the Company had no borrowings (loans) outstanding, but had letters of
credit totaling $14.8 million outstanding, which reduces the amount of
borrowings available under the Credit Agreement. At December 31, 2002, the
Company had no borrowings (loans) outstanding, but had letters of credit
totaling $16.2 million outstanding. At June 30, 2002, the Company had no
borrowings (loans) outstanding, but letters of credit totaling $13.6 million
outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

Also, on December 20, 2001, the Company completed a securitization of up to $100
million in accounts receivable with PNC Bank, National Association, as
administrator, and certain conduit purchasers. At December 20, 2001, the
securitization had initial lender commitments of $50 million. On April 9, 2003,
the securitization was amended to increase the commitment level from $50 million
to $70 million and extend the term to April 7, 2006. The interest rate charged
approximates 1-month libor plus 55 basis points. The amended securitization
increased the interest rate spread to 80 basis points. The Company sells all
right, title and interest in and to certain of its accounts receivable to Blair
Factoring Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary. Blair Factoring Company is a
separate bankruptcy remote special purpose entity that entered into a
Receivables Purchase Agreement with PNC Bank, National Association, as
administrator, and certain conduit purchasers. The Company's consolidated
financial statements reflect all the accounts of Blair Factoring Company,
including the receivables and secured borrowings. Transactions entered into
under the Receivables Purchase Agreement are considered secured borrowings and
collateral transactions under the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities. At June 30, 2003, $70
million of the $100 million was available to the Company. The securitization
requires certain performance standards for the Company's accounts receivable
portfolio in addition to complying with the covenants in the Credit Agreement.
As of June 30, 2003, the Company was in compliance with all the requirements of
the Receivables Purchase Agreement. At June 30, 2003, December 31, 2002, and
June 30, 2002, the Company had $15 million outstanding, the minimum amount
required to be outstanding under the terms of the Receivables Purchase
Agreement, all of which was classified as short-term.

The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 4.12 at June 30, 2003,
3.39 at December 31, 2002 and 3.67 at June 30, 2002. Working capital increased
$2.9 million to $205.2 million in the first six months of 2003 primarily due to
a smaller amount of purchases of property, plant and equipment. The 2003
increase was primarily reflected in decreased trade accounts payable and
accruals for expenses exceeding decreases in cash and cash equivalents and
customer accounts receivable.

Merchandise inventory turnover was 3.6 times at June 30, 2003, 3.4 times at
December 31, 2002 and 2.9 times at June 30, 2002. Merchandise inventory as of
June 30, 2003 of $52.1 million was $3 million or 6% lower than at December 31,
2002 and $4 million or 8% greater than at June 30, 2002. The merchandise
inventory levels are net of the Company's reserve for inventory obsolescence.
The reserve totaled $3.9 million at June 30, 2003, $4.0 million at December 31,
2002 and $4.3 million at June 30, 2002. Inventory write-offs and write-downs
(reductions to below cost) charged against the reserve for obsolescence were
$2.4 million in the first six months of 2003 and $3.4 million in the first six
months of 2002. A monthly provision for obsolete inventory is added to the
reserve and expensed to cost of goods sold, based on the levels of merchandise
inventory and merchandise purchases.

An operating segment is identified as a component of an enterprise for which
separate financial information is available for evaluation by the chief
decision-maker, or decision-making group, in deciding on how to allocate
resources and assess performance. The Company operates as one business segment
consisting of the Womenswear, Menswear, Home and Crossing Pointe product lines.
Crossing Pointe was added in the third quarter of 2000 and is becoming a
significant source of revenue.

The Company looks upon its credit granting (Blair Credit) as a marketing
advantage. Blair Credit customers, on average, buy more, buy more often and are
more loyal than cash and credit card customers. The Company has determined that
the benefit from the increased sales volume achieved by offering the Blair
Credit is significant and more than outweighs the cost of the credit program.
The cost of the credit program is comparable to the discount rates of third
party credit cards. The Company's gross credit sales increased 3.5% in the first
six months of 2003 as compared to the first six months of 2002.

The Company has added new facilities, modernized its existing facilities and
acquired new cost-saving equipment during the last several years. Capital
expenditures for property, plant and equipment totaled $3.7 million during the
first six months of 2003 and $5.8 million during the first six months of 2002.

Capital expenditures had been projected to be $15 million plus for each of the
years 2001 and 2002 and nearly $10 million for 2003. However, capital
expenditures for 2001 were delayed due to economic conditions. This included
slowing the implementation of the previously announced modernization and
enhancement of the Company's fulfillment operations. The fulfillment project was
completed in the second quarter at a total cost of $13.2 million, down from
earlier estimates of $21 million. The Company anticipates that this equipment
will increase the productivity of its fulfillment operations.

The Company continues to hold for sale its liquidation outlet store located in
Erie, Pa. The Company believes the sale will be completed by March, 2004.

The Company has contractual obligations consisting of capital leases for data
processing and telephone equipment, and operating leases for buildings and data
processing, office and telephone equipment.

If an event of default should occur, payments and/or maturity of the lines of
credit could be accelerated. The Company is not in default and does not expect
to be in default of any of the provisions of the credit facilities.

The Company continues to have significant deferred tax assets primarily
resulting from reserves against accounts receivable. The Company believes these
assets are realizable based upon past earnings and availability in the
carry-back period.

The Company recently declared a quarterly dividend of $.15 per share payable on
September 15, 2003. The Company has declared dividends for 280 consecutive
quarters. It is the Company's intent to continue paying dividends; however, the
Company will evaluate its dividend practice on an ongoing basis. See "Future
Considerations".

Liquidity and Sources of Capital - continued

The Company has, from the fourth quarter of 1996 through the year 2000,
repurchased a total of 1,620,940 shares of its Common Stock. No shares were
repurchased in 2001, 2002, or in the first six months of 2003.

Future cash needs will be financed by cash flow from operations, the existing
borrowing arrangement and, if needed, other financing arrangements that may be
available to the Company. The Company's current projection of future cash
requirements, however, may be affected in the future by numerous factors,
including changes in customer payments on accounts receivable, consumer credit,
industry trends, sales volume, operating cost fluctuations, revised capital
spending plans and unplanned capital spending.

Critical Accounting Policies

Preparation of the Company's financial statements requires the application of a
number of accounting policies which are described in "Note 1, Significant
Accounting Policies" in the "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" in the
Company's 2002 Annual Report. The critical accounting policies, which if
interpreted differently under different conditions or circumstances could result
in material changes to the reported results, deal with properly valuing accounts
receivable and inventory. Properly valuing accounts receivable and inventory
requires establishing proper reserve and allowance levels, specifically the
allowances for doubtful accounts and returns and the reserve for inventory
obsolescence. The Company's senior financial management reviews the critical
accounting policies and estimates with the Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors.

The allowance for doubtful accounts and related items, provision for doubtful
accounts and Blair Credit, are discussed in "Results of Operations," "Liquidity
and Sources of Capital" and "Future Considerations." A change in the charge off
rate would cause changes in the provision for doubtful accounts and the
allowance for doubtful accounts. Based on the Company's 2002 level of credit
sales and finance charges, net income would change by approximately $2.5
million, or $.31 per share, from a 1% change in the charge off rate.

The allowance for returns is a deduction from customer accounts receivable. A
monthly provision for anticipated returns is recorded as a percentage of gross
sales, based upon historical experience. The provision is charged against gross
sales to arrive at net sales, and actual returns are charged against the
allowance for returns. Returns are generally more predictable as they settle
within two-to three months, but are impacted by season, new products and/or
product lines, type of sale (cash, credit card, Blair Credit) and sales mix
(prospect/customer). The Company feels that the allowance for returns is
sufficient to cover the returns that will occur after June 30, 2003 from sales
prior to July 1, 2003. A change in the returns rate would cause changes in the
provision for returns and the allowance for returns. Based on the Company's 2002
level of sales, net income would change by approximately $2.8 million, or $.35
per share, from a 1% change in the returns rate.

The reserve for inventory obsolescence and related items, inventory levels and
write-downs, are discussed in "Liquidity and Sources of Capital" and "Future
Considerations". The Company feels that the reserve for inventory obsolescence
is sufficient to cover the write-offs and write-downs that will occur after June
30, 2003 on merchandise inventory as of June 30, 2003. A change in the
obsolescence rate would cause changes in cost of goods sold and the reserve for
inventory obsolescence. Based on the Company's 2002 level of merchandise subject
to obsolescence, net income would change by approximately $1.8 million, or $.22
per share, from a 1% change in the obsolescence rate.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

Although inflation has moderated in our economy, the Company is continually
seeking ways to cope with its impact. To the extent permitted by competition,
increased costs are passed on to customers by selectively increasing selling
prices over a period of time. Historically, profit margins have been pressured
by postal and paper rate increases. Paper rates have moderated over the
reporting period. Postal rates increased on January 10, 1999, on January 7,
2001, on July 1, 2001 and again on June 30, 2002. Based on recent public
communications by the United States Postal Service, it is anticipated that
postal rates will not increase again until 2006. The Company spent approximately
$97 million for postage and delivery services in 2002.

The Company principally uses the LIFO method of accounting for its merchandise
inventories. Under this method, the cost of products sold reported in the
financial statements approximates current costs and thus reduces distortion in
reported income due to increasing costs. However, the Company has been
experiencing consistent to declining merchandise costs and the LIFO reserve has
remained relatively constant-$5.7 million at June 30, 2003 and at December 31,
2002. At June 30, 2002, the LIFO reserve was $5.4 million.

Property, plant and equipment are continuously being expanded and updated. Major
projects are discussed under "Liquidity and Sources of Capital". Assets acquired
in prior years will be replaced at higher costs but this will take place over
many years. New assets, when acquired, will result in higher depreciation
charges, but in many cases, due to technological improvements, savings in
operating costs should result. The charges to operations for depreciation
represent the allocation of historical costs incurred over past years and are
significantly less than if they were based on the current cost of productive
capacity being used.

Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions
of SFAS No. 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets and SFAS
No. 143 Accounting For Asset Retirement Obligations.  The
Company adopted SFAS No. 148, Accounting For Stock-Based
Compensation Transition and Disclosure an amendment of SFAS No.
123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation effective the year
ending December 31,2002.

SFAS No. 145, Recission of FASB No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement
No. 13, and Technical Corrections, and FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor's
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others were adopted by the Company effective
January 1, 2003. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact
on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets which supersedes SFAS
No. 121 Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and
for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. Although retaining many
of the provisions of SFAS No. 121, SFAS No. 144 establishes a
uniform accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed.
The Company's adoption of this statement in the first quarter of
2002 did not have an impact on the Company's financial results,
but does impact the accounting treatment of the planned sale of
the Blair Outlet Store in Erie, Pa. (See Note L)

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with
Exit or Disposal Activities when the liability is incurred and not as a result
of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. The statement is effective for exit
or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company's adoption

this statement in the first quarter 2003 did not have an impact on the
Company's financial results, but does impact the accounting treatment of
the voluntary separation of employees due to the planned sale of the Blair
Outlet Store in Erie. (See Note M)

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149 Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement amends and
clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for
hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities. This statement is generally effective for contracts entered
into or modified after June 30, 2003. The Company believes the adoption of this
standard will not have a material impact on its results of operations or
financial condition.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. This statement
establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures in its statement
of financial position certain financial instruments with characteristics of both
liabilities and equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments
entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise at the beginning of
the Company's fourth quarter. The Company believes the adoption of this standard
will not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial
condition.

Future Considerations

The Company is faced with the ever-present challenge of maintaining and
expanding its customer file. This involves the acquisition of new customers
(prospects), the conversion of new customers to established customers (active
repeat buyers) and the retention and/or reactivation of established customers.
These actions are vital in growing the business but are being negatively
impacted by increased operating costs, increased competition in the retail
sector, high levels of consumer debt, varying consumer response rates and an
uncertain economy. The preceding factors can also negatively impact the
Company's ability to properly value accounts receivable and inventories by
making it more difficult to establish proper reserve and allowance levels,
specifically, the allowances for doubtful accounts and returns and the reserve
for inventory obsolescence.

The Company's marketing strategy includes targeting customers in the "40 to 60,
low-to-moderate income" market and in the "60+, low-to-moderate income" market.
The "40 to 60" market is the fastest growing segment of the population. Also,
customers in the "low-to-moderate income" market tend to be more credit-needy
and utilize Blair credit to a greater degree. Success of the Company's marketing
strategy requires investment in database management, financial and operating
systems, prospecting programs, catalog marketing, new product lines, telephone
call centers, e-commerce, fulfillment operations and credit management.
Management believes that these investments should improve Blair Corporation's
position in new and existing markets and provide opportunities for future
earnings growth.

The Company has a working arrangement with accomplished actress, artist, author
and mother, Jane Seymour, to launch the "Jane Seymour Signature Collection" of
women's apparel. The Jane Seymour inspired womens fashions are being sold
exclusively through the Company's Crossing Pointe catalog and website
(www.crossingpointe.com). The first "Jane Seymour Signature Collection" fashions
previewed in early January 2002 on the Crossing Pointe website and debuted in
the Crossing Pointe Spring 2002 Catalog mailed at the end of January 2002.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET
RISK

The carrying amounts of cash, customer accounts receivable, accounts payable,
and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities
of these assets and liabilities. The interest rates on the Company's securitized
and revolving credit facilities are adjusted regularly to reflect current market
rates. Accordingly, the carrying amounts of the Company's borrowings also
approximate fair value.

       [1] Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of the stockholders, for the

      [2] Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders, for any purposes

number of votes to which the Common Stock shall be entitled, shall constitute a
quorum at all meetings of the stockholders. Where a separate vote by a class or
classes is required, a majority of the shares of such class or classes present
in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum
entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter.. If a quorum
shall fail to attend any meeting, the Chairman of the Board or the President of
the Corporation may adjourn the meeting to another place, date, or time. At any
such adjourned meeting at which the requisite amount of voting stock shall be

or by proxy, shall call to order any meeting of the stockholders and act as
chairman of the meeting. In the absence of the Secretary of the Corporation, the
secretary of the meeting shall be such person as the chairman of the meeting
appoints.

      [6] Conduct of Business.

           (a) The chairman of any meeting of stockholders shall determine the
      order of business and the procedures at the meeting, including such
      regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seem
      to him or her in order. The date and time of the opening and closing of
      the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at the
      meeting shall be announced at the meeting.

           (b) At any annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business
      shall be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting: (i) by
      or at the direction of the board of directors or (ii) by any stockholder
      of the Corporation who is entitled to vote with respect thereto and who
      complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 6(b). For
      business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder,
      the business must relate to a proper subject matter for stockholder action
      and the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to
      the Secretary of the Corporation. To be timely, a stockholder's notice
      must be delivered or mailed to and received at the principal executive
      offices of the Corporation not less than ninety (90) days prior to the
      date of the annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that less
      than one hundred (100) days' notice or prior public disclosure of the date
      of the meeting is given or made to stockholders, notice by the stockholder
      to be timely must be received not later than the close of business on the
      10th day following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual
      meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was made. A stockholder's
      notice to the Secretary shall set forth as to each matter such stockholder
      proposes to bring before the annual meeting: (i) a brief description of
      the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and the
      reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting; (ii) the name
      and address,







                                                                           -37-

                                                                    Exhibit 3.2

      as they appear on the Corporation's books, of the stockholder proposing
      such business; (iii) the class and number of shares of the Corporation's
      capital stock that are beneficially owned by such stockholder; and (iv)
      any material interest of such stockholder in such business.
      Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business
      shall be brought before or conducted at an annual meeting except in
      accordance with the provisions of this Section 6(b). The officer of the
      Corporation or other person presiding over the annual meeting shall, if
      the facts so warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that business
      was not properly brought before the meeting in accordance with the
      provisions of this Section 6(b) and, if he should so determine, he shall
      so declare to the meeting and any such business so determined to be not
      properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted.

           At any special meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall
      be conducted as shall have been brought before the meeting by or at the
      direction of the board of directors.

           (c) Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures
      set forth in these Bylaws shall be eligible for election as directors.
      Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors of the
      Corporation may be made at a meeting of stockholders at which directors
      are to be elected only: (i) by or at the direction of the board of
      directors; or (ii) by any stockholder of the Corporation entitled to vote
      for the election of directors at the meeting who complies with the notice
      procedures set forth in this Section 6(c). Such nominations, other than
      those made by or at the direction of the board of directors, shall be made
      by timely notice in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation. To be
      timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered or mailed to and
      received at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not less
      than ninety (90) days prior to the date of the meeting; provided, however,
      that in the event that less than one hundred (100) days' notice or prior
      disclosure of the date of the meeting is given or made to stockholders,
      notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not later than
      the close of business on the 10th day following the day on which such
      notice of the date of the meeting was mailed or such public disclosure was
      made. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth: (i) as to each person
      whom such stockholder proposes to nominate for election or re-election as
      a director, all information relating to such person that is required to be
      disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is
      otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the
      Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including such person's
      written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to
      serving as a director if elected); and (ii) as to the stockholder giving
      the notice (x) the name and address, as they appear on the Corporation's
      books, of such stockholder and (y) the class and number of shares of the
      Corporation's capital stock that are beneficially owned by such
      stockholder. At the request of the board of directors, any person
      nominated by the Board of directors for election as a director shall
      furnish to the Secretary of the Corporation that information required to
      be set forth in a stockholder's notice of nomination which pertains to the
      nominee. The officer of the Corporation or other person presiding at the
      meeting shall, if the facts so warrant, determine that a nomination was
      not made in accordance with such provisions and, if he or she shall so
