These little tune-totes must have been a short-lived trend in the hey-day of 45rpm singles. I was pretty excited to come across this one in an antique store, especially considering it still has what must be the collection of the original owner. The name & address sticker of one Sheryl Johnson plastered on each of the records clued me in. I like to imagine a teenage Sheryl showing off her tune-tote to her friends, or sitting by herself listening to “Johnny Angel” and longing after her latest crush.
While I might never know who you really were, I thank you Sheryl Johnson for the time capsule of music. By the way, I’m keeping your nostalgic collection in it’s rightful place in the tune-tote.
