                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

         (a) GENERAL.

         Blair Corporation (the "Company") was founded in 1910 by John L. Blair,
Sr., and was incorporated in 1924 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The
Company's business consists of the sale of fashion apparel for men and women,
plus a wide range of home products. Although the Company's revenues are
generated primarily through direct mail merchandising, the Company has
transitioned into a multi-channel direct marketer, as an increasing amount of
total revenue, approximately 5% in 2001, is being generated through its
e-commerce website which was launched in 2000. The Company operates three retail
stores, two in Pennsylvania and one in Delaware, and two outlet stores in
Pennsylvania. The Company employs approximately 2,600 people. None of the
Company's employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements.

         (b) INFORMATION REGARDING INDUSTRY SEGMENTS.

         The Company's business consists of only one industry segment, which is
the direct mail, e-commerce and retail merchandising of men's and women's
fashion apparel and home products.

         (c) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

         The Company markets a wide range of merchandise, manufactured by a
number of independent suppliers, both domestic and foreign. Most of these
suppliers have been associated with the Company for many years and manufacture
products based upon the Company's specifications. Suppliers are selected in
accordance with their ability to produce high quality products in a
cost-effective manner.

         The Company markets its products mainly by direct mail. Catalogs and
letters containing color folders, depict the current styles of womenswear (such
as coordinates, dresses, tops, pants, skirts, lingerie, sportswear, suits,
jackets, outerwear and shoes), menswear (such as suits, shirts, outerwear,
active wear, slacks, shoes, and accessories), and home products (such as
bedspread ensembles, draperies, furniture covers, area rugs, bath accessories,
kitchenware, gifts, collectibles and personal care items) and are mailed
directly to existing and prospective customers. Sales of the menswear and
womenswear products, including the Crossing Pointe product line which was
introduced in 2000, accounted for approximately 89% of the Company's total sales
in 2001, and sales of home products accounted for the remaining 11%
(approximately). Media and co-op prospect advertising programs continue to be
used as components of the Company's customer acquisition strategy. The Company
expanded its Internet presence in 2001 generating nearly $35 million in sales,
approximately 5% of the Company's total gross sales, as compared to
approximately $2 million in sales in 2000. The Company launched its own
e-commerce website (www.blair.com) in the fall of 2000 and redesigned the site
at the beginning of 2001.

         Both catalog mailings and letter mailings are mailed from commercial
printers engaged by the Company. Prior to the second quarter of 2001, letter
mailings originated from the Company's former Mailing Center in nearby Irvine,
Pennsylvania. In the second quarter of 2001, the mailing operations were
outsourced and in the third quarter of 2001, the merchandise returns operations
that were located in the former Mailing Center were relocated to the Company's
Returns Center in Erie, Pennsylvania. Orders for merchandise are processed at
the Company's corporate offices in Warren, Pennsylvania (telephone orders via
the call centers) and orders are filled and mailed from the Company's
Distribution Center in Irvine, Pennsylvania. The Distribution Center is being
expanded to include the former Mailing Center, and enhanced to improve customer
service levels and to support the Company's growth plans. The Company serves
customers throughout the fifty states.

         The Company's outlet stores enable it to more efficiently promote and
liquidate discontinued, overstocked and returned merchandise. The Delaware
retail store is the only Company retail facility located outside of its home
state of Pennsylvania.

         The Company considers its merchandise to be low/medium-priced and
competes for sales with other direct marketers, retail department stores,
specialty shops, discount store chains and e-commerce and multi-channel
marketers. The Company competes based on its sales expertise - its unique
combination of product, quality, price, credit, guarantee and service.


                                      -2-

         During 2001, the Company continued to broaden its customer information
database systems. The marketing and credit departments are continually updated
in order to enhance the Company's ability to market to both customers and
prospects.

         In October 2001, the Company announced a partnership with accomplished
actress, artist, author and mother, Jane Seymour, to launch the "Jane Seymour
Signature Collection" of women's apparel. The Jane Seymour inspired fashions
will be 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.

         (d) FOREIGN OPERATIONS AND EXPORT SALES.

         The Company does not derive any revenue from sales of merchandise
outside of the United States.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

         The Company owns the following properties:

         1.   Blair Headquarters (220 Hickory Street, Warren, Pennsylvania).

         2.   Blair Distribution Center South (Route 62, Irvine, Pennsylvania).

         3.   Blair Distribution Center North (Route 62, Irvine, Pennsylvania).

         4.   Blair Warehouse Outlet (Route 62, Starbrick, Pennsylvania).

         5.   Blair Warehouse Outlet (Millcreek Mall, Erie, Pennsylvania).

         6.   Bell Warehouse Building (Liberty Street, Warren, Pennsylvania).

         7.   Starbrick Warehouse Building (Route 62, Starbrick, Pennsylvania).

         The Company leases the following properties:

         1.   Blair Retail Store (Wilmington, Delaware).

         2.   Warehouse Building (Route 62, Starbrick, Pennsylvania).

         3.   Telephone Call Center (Erie, Pennsylvania).

         4.   Telephone Call Center (Franklin, Pennsylvania).

         5.   Blair Retail Store (Grove City, Pennsylvania).

         6.   Blair Returns Center (Erie, Pennsylvania).

         7.   International Trade Offices (Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and
              India).

         In addition, three of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries lease
office space in the Wilmington, Delaware area, which they use as their principal
offices.

         Management believes that these properties are capable of meeting the
Company's anticipated needs for the near future once the previously announced
modernization and expansion of the Company's merchandise fulfillment
capabilities is completed, which is projected to be by year-end 2003. However,
the Company's marketing strategy and potential sales growth may require
expansion of the Company's customer service and call center capabilities.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceedings other than
legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business. Management
believes that none of these legal proceedings, individually or in the aggregate,
will have a material adverse impact on the results of operations or financial
condition of the Company.


                                      -3-

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         MATTERS

pages 14 through 18 of the Company's 2001 Annual Report to Stockholders.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The Company is subject to market interest rate risk from exposure to
changes in interest rates based upon its financing, investing and cash
management activities. The Company utilizes variable-rate debt to manage its
exposure to changes in interest rates. The Company does not expect changes in
interest rates to have a material adverse effect on its income or cash flow in
2002. A change of one percent in the interest rate would cause a change in
interest expense, based on the Company's current level of debt, for the year
2002 of approximately $150,000.
