Forty Years Among the Old Booksellers of Philadelphia With Biographical Remarks The Quarto
dbp:text
"No one would ever accuse Moses Polock of avarice - he seldom sold a book at any price without afterward regretting that he sold it at all." “He made little exertion as a businessman to sell his books, and because his prices are and were always fanciful. At any time after 10 o’clock in the morning you can ascend to his store; there you will find him bachelor-like all alone in his glory, breathing the atmosphere of his old books. He will meet you in the most genial manner, and will talk to you about his gems in the most intelligent spirit...“He has a rare early knowledge of men in the book business for the last forty years; but being a very reticent and diffident man, I am afraid those of the city will lose a charming lot of history about book-sellers, publishers and books. He is still in his old place, ever ready to do business with you, but is seldom visited except some old book-worm want some very scarce book or pamphlet.”
