Magazine Catalogue - Printed
In the past we have produced hard copy magazine catalogue every year, we no longer produce a hard copy catalogue every year. It we do produce another hard copy magazine catalogue we will contact all our magazine distribution partners.
Past catalogueswere mailed to our magazine outlets.
Examples of the shops included in the 450 plus retail outlets that we send catalogues to: Athenaeum Boekhandel (Amsterdam), Arnolofini (Bristol), Artwords (London), Do You Read Me (Berlin), Flammarion - Paris Pompidou, Home (formerly Cornerhouse in Manchster), Housmans (London), ICA (London), Magma (London and Manchester), Nippan (Tokyo), Tate Gallery (Liverpool, London and St Ives), Walther Koenig Books (London and German branches), Wardour News (London), and World Magazines (Seoul).
The cover images are in full colour. To help cover our costs for the production of the catalogue we offer a number of options for entry into the catalogue.
All magazines are listed FREE OF CHARGE. Every magazine we distribute gets a free listing in the catalogue, but the listing does not include any cover image, and is only a one-line entry in the catalogue.

When we are about to put together the printed catalogue we want to know if nd there will be further changes throughout the year.
