Indianapolis, Indiana.

On October 30, we will begin shipping Playing Authors: An Anthology using USPS Media Mail®. Media Mail ships in 2-8 business days. Our other projects, which are printed on demand, are shipped accordingly. To learn more about our policies, please visit Customer Care. At certain times of the year, particularly around holidays, we will update any changes in our shipment schedule to our website and Instagram.

Our goal is to create objects that champion our community and mission, using a blend of limited run and print-on-demand options. It's important to us to attempt this process thoughtfully, weighing the costs of each project while being mindful of the opportunities offered by limited run and on-demand manufacturing. To that end, we're taking it one step at a time. Along the way, we'll let you know where every object comes from and our reasoning behind the particularities of its manufacture.
‍
We hope that by using print-on-demand and limited-run manufacturing, we can create objects that deserve their place in your life.

Playing Authors: An Anthology was printed by our partners, Bookmobile, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

If you are one of the first twenty-five orders, in addition to Playing Authors: An Anthology, you will receive a custom Old Iron Press playing card and a special embroidered patch created with our partners, United State Print Co. (one patch/card per order).

We will personally notify you if you’ve placed one of the first twenty-five orders to let you know you’ll be receiving some extra goodies. We will also post updates on social media once the first twenty-five orders have been placed.

Make sure to follow us on Instagram and sign up for our seasonal newsletter, The Gutenborg Project, where we host giveaways and further opportunities to get involved with Old Iron Press.

Thank you so much for asking! Unlike major book publishers, we don't have a budget for promotions. All of our efforts rely on community support and DIY verve. Supporting our authors, keeping our books affordable, and offering giveaways and free content is part of our ethos of care and inclusion, but all of that takes time and resources. Getting the word out, telling folks about OIP and our authors is such a help. Thank you! Subscribing to our newsletter, The Gutenborg Project, and following us on Instagram also helps as well. We are always open to ideas. Send us your suggestions! We love help.
