Contents of my paternal Grandmother Eva Sophronia Gordon Palmer Musical Sewing Box. The Sewing box plays “Let Me Call You Sweetheart. Baby Boomers will recognize Passbook Savings Accounts. I still remember my first Savings Account, going to the bank and getting my Passbook updated. My parents met and married in Dayton, Ohio in December 1955. Later they moved to Harlem, New York and lived with my paternal Grandparents. Then they moved to the Bronx where my brother Stephen and I were born. Sometime around 1962 or 1963 my parents purchased a home in St. Albans, Queens, New York where Stephen and I grew up.

The sewing box is beautiful. I have one in a similar style, gifted me by my godfather many many years ago.
Thanks my paternal Grandmother Eva Gordon Palmer was married in January 1919. She died when I was a little girl around the early 1960s. I don’t know whether she had the musical sewing box before she got married or my grandfather gave it to her while they were married. It plays the tune Let Me Call You Sweetheart. After my Dad died I inherited the sewing box. I like to wind it up to hear the tune and just look through the items within. Comforting.
