An invaluable resource for zine/print related info, Printed Matter Inc. is located in Chelsea in NYC. They’ve been around forever and they’ve been at the forefront of representing artists printed works for almost 30 years.
From their About us page:
“Printed Matter’s mission is to foster the appreciation, dissemination, and understanding of artists’ publications, which we define as books or other editioned publications conceived by artists as art works, or, more succinctly, as “artwork for the page.” Printed Matter specializes in publications produced in large, inexpensive editions and therefore does not deal in “book arts” or “book objects” which are often produced in smaller, more expensive editions due to the craft and labor involved in their fabrication.”
They have a reading room where people can come and read your “artistic” mag/zine/publication and even buy one. The deal on a strict consignment and be sure to check to see if they are accepting submissions before you drop it in the mail to them. The main thing is they don’t do mags with a print run under 100 pieces. All the info is on the site so definitely check it out..

I liked your comments on the wooster site btw. Not necessarily the woosterbashing but the gist of where political street art fits in nowadays.
Stay up!
