Covid-19 Update:

To our valued customers:

It is our hope that all of you are tucked safely away in your homes as we continue to learn about social distancing.  To those of you who are essential workers and continue your jobs during this pandemic - thank you.

We at Phillip J. Pirages are fortunate that our premises and business model allow us to continue to work safely, though with significant modifications.  We are open, and here to help you with orders and inquires.  Please take some time to browse our inventory online.  If you prefer to turn pages, please send us an email or give us a call to request a catalogue.

Also, please stay tuned for our upcoming catalogue 76, which will be completely digital.  Catalogue 76 will feature a wide variety of inventory, and we are looking forward to getting it to you very soon.

Best wishes,

Phillip J. Pirages Fine Books & Manuscripts
