'His business (circulating library), which included that of
selling books, prospered so much, that, in 1774, he removed to
larger premises ... he afterwards, to meet the demands of his still
increasing business removed to the north-east corner of Dyer's Wynd
... Moss Street' Robert Brown. Paisley poets i,369;
Tait's Glasgow Directory 1783, which includes a Paisley
Directory shows him already at the Moss Street address. In 1789 he
published A Catalogue of the Paisley Circulating Library,
consisting of above one thousand volumes, which are lent to read,
by the year, half-year, quarter, month, or single night. He
was in his later days always know as George Caldwell senior to
distinguish him from his son George Caldwell 2. This is the George
Caldwell whose conversation about Dougal Graham was reported by
William Motherwell in The Paisley Magazine, and who is
twice mentioned by Hawkie (William Cameron) as being in 1819,
retired 'at the Head of Dyer's Wynd', 'but still kept a few small
books to serve hawkers'.

From 1825 until the early 1840s George Caldwell was one of the
half dozen most prolific chapbook printers in Scotland, and seems
to have stereotyped many of his titles. After that date, the firm
apparently gave up chapbooks, though the printing firm continued.
In 1825 he took over the newspaper The Gaberlunzie but
only published 10 issues. In 1851 the firm now under George
Caldwell 3, calling himself 'junior' was still at the same address,
his house being 'Teetotal Tower, West Sandyford' according to
Fowler's Paisley Directory. Between 1858 and 1868, the
style of the firm was George Caldwell & Co, and in 1878, there
was a Jane Caldwell bookseller and stationer at 2 Gilmour
Street.
