NOTES TO QUARTERLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Boise Cascade Office Products
Corporation
================================================================================


ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION.  Boise Cascade Office Products
Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company" or "we")
headquartered in Itasca, Illinois, is a distributor of products for the office
through its contract stationer and direct marketing channels.  At December 31,
1997, Boise Cascade Corporation owned approximately 81% of our outstanding
common stock.  These financial statements are unaudited statements which do not
include all Notes to Financial Statements and should be read in conjunction
with our 1997 Annual Report.  The 1997 Annual Report will be available in March
1998.

EARNINGS PER SHARE.  Unaudited basic earnings per share for the three and 12
months ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, were computed by dividing net income
by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the
periods.  Unaudited diluted earnings per share for the three and 12 months
ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, include the weighted average impact of stock
options assumed exercised using the treasury method. In 1997, we adopted
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS
128), effective December 15, 1997.  The only impact of the adoption was to
reduce earnings per share for the 12 months ended December 31, 1996, by $.01.

COMMON STOCK.  On September 25, 1997, we issued 2,250,000 shares of common
stock at $21.55 per share to Boise Cascade Corporation.

ACQUISITIONS AND JOINT VENTURES.  On January 31, 1997, we acquired the contract
stationer business of The Office Stop, based in Butte, Montana.  On February
28, 1997, we acquired the contract stationer business of Florida Ribbon and
Carbon, based in Jacksonville, Florida.  On April 17, 1997, we acquired the
contract stationer business of Winterbulk Business Supplies, Ltd., based in
Bolton, England.  On April 30, 1997, we acquired the computer consumables
business of TDI, based in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina.  On May 30, 1997, we
acquired the computer consumables business of Carlyle Computer Products Ltd.,
based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.  On May 31, we acquired the promotional
products business of OstermanAPI Inc., based in Maumee, Ohio.  On July 7, 1997,
we acquired the direct marketing business of Jean-Paul Guisset, S.A., based in
Paris, France.  On November 28, 1997, we acquired the contract stationer
business of Society Europa, based in Paris, France.  The combined annual sales
of these acquisitions at the time of announcement were approximately
$340,000,000.  The results of operations of the acquired businesses are
included in our operations subsequent to the dates of acquisition.  In
conjunction with the acquisition of Osterman, we formed a majority-owned
subsidiary, Boise Marketing Services, Inc., ("BMSI").  Our previously acquired
promotional products company, OWNCO, also became part of BMSI.  In January
1997, we also completed a joint venture with Otto Versand to direct market
office products in Europe, initially in Germany.

INCOME TAXES.  The effective annual tax provision rate for the year ended
December 31, 1997, was 43.0%, compared with a tax provision rate of 41.0% for
the same period in the prior year.  The increase is primarily due to increased
nondeductible goodwill and foreign income taxed at a higher rate.
