Getting specialist shelfspace from a bookshop

Adapted extract from a letter from 'BobEE' in the American magazine Anarchy (Spring '94) monitored for the Institute by Roger Knights.

Here's how to sell anarchist [Ed: or other?] books in your town without having to shell out rent for a bookstore.

Approach a local bookstore with an offer similar to mine which is as follows: the bookstore gives me space (a shelf or so) and sells the books at 30% profit price. I stock order and pay for books.

It is good for me because I get to distribute anarchist books locally and get to control that space. It is good for the bookstore because they get profit but don't have to deal with a distributor.
