Paper Pushers Consignment Form

Paper Pushers is a 6-month pop-up bookstore, print shop and community space based in Seattle, WA, run by the Seattle Printers Guild. We are currently accepting consignment submissions and are looking for zines, self-published books, and artist books. While we're primarily a bookstore, we are also interested in stickers, posters, and print-based goods in general. Our ideal submissions are in the $1 - $20 range though we will consider works with a higher retail price. The retail price is split 80/20 between the consigning artist (80%) and Paper Pushers, and consignment payments are made every three months. Feel free to submit multiple forms if you have more than 5 titles you would like us to consider for consignment. We look forward to seeing your work!
