- "Copyright, 1957, Peabody Museum of Salem."
- "The maritime history of the Port of Philadelphia remains to be written. Relatively few people realize that Philadelphia has a port and that that port was and is one of the great ports of our country. It is hoped that this catalogue, which is the first to be published on this subject, and the exhibition which it describes, will stimulate interest in this little-known but highly fascinating field."--Foreword.
