Within the framework of a particular model for meson production, we have performed a perturbative QCD analysis for exclusive pair production of heavy mesons. Analytic calculations of angular distributions for pseudoscalar-pseudoscalar, vector-pseudoscalar, and vector-vector mesons are presented. Numerical estimates of the cross section, angular distributions, and forward-backward asymmetry for various B, B/sup */, T, and T/sup */ mesons are given at an energy range of 20--100 GeV. The forward-backward asymmetry from weak-electromagnetic interference is found to be large at the energy (around 50 GeV) of the KEK collider TRISTAN.
