A feed apparatus for a printing press includes a first sucker device and a second sucker device. The first sucker device includes a guide nozzle, a sucker which is supported by said guide nozzle to be vertically movable and includes a chuck hole at a bottom for chucking the sheet, and a spring which biases said sucker toward a distal end of said guide nozzle. The guide nozzle includes a first air passage for drawing the sheet and a second air passage for drawing said sucker. The sucker includes a closing portion which closes said second air passage when said sucker is located at an upper limit against a biasing force of said spring.
